More details to this question:
Your answer did not exactly tell me what I need to know, and this site's email didn't work. A little more info may be in order. I have been paying my rent to an LLC for nearly four years. They sold the building before refunding me excessive rent. Now I have to sue them for it. However, there is no record of that company at the SOS, so I can't find how to name them in the suit. The checks seem to have been deposited into the account of another LLC that I didn't know about, and I have named them. Where can I find the company that the checks were written to?

Update Your Profile
If the LLC did not appear on the California Secretary of State website, then that LLC is not registered in California. It is possible that either (1) the LLC does not really exist, or (2) the LLC is registered in another state but not in California.
You can still include this LLC as a defendant in your litigation and hire a process server to do a skip trace or whatever they do to find litigants.
