5 Del. C. § 132

If by reason of any circumstance or condition whatsoever, the Commissioner shall be satisfied that it is necessary for the protection of the depositors and the conservation of the assets of any state bank or trust company doing business in this State, the Commissioner may forthwith take possession of the place of business of the bank or trust company and take charge of its affairs and the conduct of its business for such time as the Commissioner deems necessary without first instituting or causing to be instituted any proceeding in the Court of Chancery, but every bank or trust company shall have the right to apply to the Court of Chancery for a rule on the Commissioner so taking possession of the bank or trust company to show cause why the Commissioner should continue in possession, and the Court may after a hearing upon such rule, direct the Commissioner to withdraw from the possession of the bank or trust company if the Court deems that the taking of such possession or the Commissioner’s continuance therein is unnecessary or inexpedient. The Commissioner may keep the bank or trust company open and continue it in the transaction of business during the Commissioner’s possession of it, and if the Commissioner deems it necessary, to prescribe restrictions as to the withdrawal of deposits, whether time or demand, and to prescribe the conditions upon which deposits, whether time or demand, may be withdrawn during the Commissioner’s possession of the bank or trust company.
