Official statutory text
certificate - Liquidation - Disposition of assets.
(A) If it appears that any credit union organized under the
laws of this state is bankrupt or insolvent, or that it has
willfully violated the laws of this state relating to credit unions,
or is operating in an unsafe or unsound manner, the Bank
Commissioner, upon approval of the State Credit Union Board, may
issue an order temporarily suspending all or part of a credit
union's operations for not more than sixty (60) days. The board of
directors shall be given notice by registered mail of such
suspension, which notice shall include a list of the reasons for
such suspension, and shall include a list of the specific violations
of law, if any, and the operations suspended. The Bank Commissioner
shall also notify the insuring organization of any suspension.
(B) Upon receipt of such suspension notice, the credit union
shall cease those operations identified by the Bank Commissioner in
the notice. The board of directors shall then file with the Bank
Commissioner a reply to the suspension notice, and may request a
hearing to present a plan of corrective actions proposed if the
board desires to continue operations. The board may request that
the credit union be declared insolvent and a liquidating agent be
appointed.
(C) Upon receipt from the suspended credit union of evidence
that the conditions causing the order of suspension have been
corrected, the Bank Commissioner may revoke the suspension notice,
permit the credit union to resume normal operations, and notify the
insuring organization and the State Credit Union Board of such
actions.
(D) If the Bank Commissioner, after issuing notice of
suspension and providing an opportunity for a hearing, rejects the
credit union's plan to continue operations, the Bank Commissioner
may issue a notice of involuntary liquidation and appoint a
liquidating agent. The credit union may request the appropriate
court to stay execution of such action. Involuntary liquidation may
not be ordered prior to the conclusion of suspension procedures
outlined in this section.
(E) If, within the suspension period, the credit union fails to
answer the suspension notice or request a hearing, the Bank
Commissioner may then revoke the credit union's certificate, appoint
a liquidating agent and liquidate the credit union.
