Section 402-C:13 - Commissioner's Seizure OrderI.Issuance. If it appears to the commissioner that the interests of creditors, policyholders or the public will be endangered by the delay incident to asking for a court seizure order, then on any ground that would justify a court seizure order under RSA 402-C:12 without notice and without applying to the court, he may issue a seizure order which must contain a verified statement of the grounds of his action. As directed by the seizure order, the commissioner's representatives shall forthwith take possession and control of all or part of the property, books, accounts, documents and other records of the insurer, and of the premises occupied by the insurer for the transaction of its business. The commissioner shall retain possession and control until the order is vacated or is replaced by an order of the court pursuant to a proceeding commenced under paragraph II or a formal proceeding under this chapter.II.Judicial Review. At any time after seizure under paragraph I, the insurer may apply to the superior court for Merrimack county or for the county in which the insurer's principal office is located. The court shall thereupon order the commissioner to appear forthwith and shall proceed thereafter as if the order were a court seizure order issued under RSA 402-C:12.III.Duty to Assist Commissioner. Every law enforcement officer shall assist the commissioner in making and enforcing any such seizure, and every sheriff's and police department shall furnish with such deputies, patrolmen or officers as are necessary to assist him.IV.Anticipatory Breach. Entry of a seizure order under this section shall not constitute an anticipatory breach of any contract of the insurer. 1969, 272:1, eff. June 23, 1969.
