N.D. Cent. Code § 6-07.1-05

6-07.1-05. Notice of state trust company closing

As soon as reasonably practicable after initiation of the receivership proceeding, the

receiver shall publish notice, in a newspaper of general circulation in each community where the

state trust company's home office and a branch are located. The notice must state that the state

trust company has been closed for liquidation, that creditors and clients must present their

claims for payment on or before a specific date, and that all safe deposit boxholders and bailors

of property left with the state trust company should remove their property not later than a

specified date. The receiver shall select the dates to allow the affairs of the state trust company

to be wound up as quickly as feasible while allowing creditors, clients, and owners of property

adequate time for presentation of claims, withdrawal of accounts, and redemption of property,

but may not select a date before one hundred twenty days after the date of the notice. The

receiver may adjust the dates with the approval of the court with or without republication if

additional time appears needed for these activities. As soon as reasonably practicable given the

state trust company records and the adequacy of staffing, the receiver shall mail to each of the

state trust company's known clients, creditors, safe deposit boxholders, and bailors of property

left for the state trust company, at the mailing address shown on the state trust company

records, an individual notice containing the information required in this section. The receiver

may determine the form and content notices under this section.
