insurers and equitable to their policyholders, for the apportionment

unable to procure such policies through ordinary methods. When any
such plan has been approved, all such insurance companies shall
subscribe thereto and participate therein. Any applicant for any
such policy, any person insured under any such plan, and any
insurance company affected may appeal to the Insurance Commissioner
from any ruling or decision of the manager or committee designated
to operate such plan. Any order or act of the Insurance
Commissioner under the provisions of this section shall be subject
to review by appeal to the district court of Oklahoma County at the

whether the filing of the appeal shall operate as a stay of any such
order or act of the Insurance Commissioner and the court shall
summarily hear the matter. The court may, in disposing of the issue
before it, modify, affirm or reverse the order or act of the
