Current through 2024 Act No. 225.
Section 38-27-350 - Termination of rehabilitation(a) Whenever the director or his designee believes further attempts to rehabilitate an insurer would substantially increase the risk of loss to creditors, policyholders, or the public or would be futile, the director or his designee may petition the circuit court for an order of liquidation. A petition under this subsection has the same effect as a petition under Section 38-27-360. The circuit court shall permit the directors of the insurer to take actions reasonably necessary to defend against the petition and may order payment from the estate of the insurer of costs and other expenses of defense as justice requires.(b) The rehabilitator may at any time petition the circuit court for an order terminating rehabilitation of an insurer. The court shall also permit the directors of the insurer to petition the court for an order terminating rehabilitation of the insurer and may order payment from the estate of the insurer of costs and other expenses of the petition as justice requires. If the circuit court finds that rehabilitation has been accomplished and that grounds for rehabilitation under Section 38-27-310 no longer exist, it shall order that the insurer be restored to possession of its property and the control of its business. The circuit court may also make that finding and issue that order at any time upon its own motion.1993 Act No. 181, Section 614; Former 1976 Code Section 38-5-2050 [1982 Act No. 384, Section 16] recodified as Section 38-27-350 by 1987 Act No. 155, Section 1.
