for a hearing thereon. The Commissioner shall hear such party or

parties within twenty (20) days after receipt of such request and

shall give not less than ten (10) days' written notice of the time

and place of the hearing. Within fifteen (15) days after such

Court imposing a stay shall be retained by the insurer unless the

Court finds that such premiums were obtained by fraud, or unless

otherwise ordered by the Court.

The Court may, in disposing of the issue before it, determine

all issues of law and fact, and may modify, affirm or reverse the

order or decisions of the Commissioner in whole or in part.
