N.D. Cent. Code § 26.1-51-08
An insurer asserting the insurance compliance self-critical analysis privilege set forth in this chapter has the burden of demonstrating the applicability of the privilege. Once an insurer has established the applicability of the privilege, a party seeking disclosure has the burden of proving that the privilege is asserted for a fraudulent purpose. The commissioner, state's attorney, or attorney general seeking disclosure of the privilege has the burden of proving the elements set forth in subdivisions a and c of subsection 3 of section 26.1-51-06.
The parties may at any time stipulate in proceedings under section 26.1-51-06 or 26.1-51-07 to entry of an order directing whether the specific information contained in an insurance compliance self-critical analysis audit document is or is not subject to the privilege provided under this chapter. Any such stipulation may be limited to the instant proceeding and, absent specific language to the contrary, is not applicable to any other proceeding.
