Section 16906
Status: in_force

(a) If the commissioner finds that any of the factors set forth in Section 16902 is true with respect to any foreign (other nation) credit union which is authorized to transact business in this state and that it is necessary for the protection of the interests of the creditors of the business of the foreign (other nation) credit union in this state or for the protection of the public interest that he or she take immediate possession of the property and business of the foreign (other nation) credit union, the commissioner may by order forthwith take possession of the property and business of the foreign (other nation) credit union and retain possession until the foreign (other nation) credit union resumes business in this state or is finally liquidated. The foreign (other nation) credit union may, with the consent of the commissioner, resume business in this state under the conditions as the commissioner may prescribe.

(b) (1) Whenever the commissioner takes possession of the property and business of a foreign (other nation) credit union pursuant to subdivision (a), the foreign (other nation) credit union may, within 10 days, apply to the superior court in the county in which the primary office in this state of the foreign (other nation) credit union is located to enjoin further proceedings. The court may, after citing the commissioner to show cause why further proceedings should not be enjoined and after a hearing, dismiss the application or enjoin the commissioner from further proceedings and order him or her to surrender the property and business of the foreign (other nation) credit union to the foreign (other nation) credit union or make any further order as may be just.

(2) The judgment of the court may be appealed by the commissioner or by the foreign (other nation) credit union in the manner provided by law for appeals from the judgment of a superior court to the court of appeal. In case the commissioner appeals the judgment of the court, the appeal shall operate as a stay of the judgment, and the commissioner shall not be required to post any bond.

(c) Whenever the commissioner takes possession of the property and business of a foreign (other nation) credit union pursuant to subdivision (a), the commissioner shall conserve or liquidate the property and business of the foreign (other nation) credit union in accordance with Sections 14301 to 14304, inclusive.

(d) When the commissioner has completed the liquidation of the property and business of a foreign (other nation) credit union in this state, the commissioner shall transfer any remaining assets to the foreign (other nation) credit union in accordance with any order the court may issue. However, in case the foreign (other nation) credit union has an office in another state of the United States which is in liquidation and the assets of that office appear to be insufficient to pay in full the creditors of that office, the court shall order the commissioner to transfer to the liquidator of that office the amount of any remaining assets as appears to be necessary to cover the insufficiency. If there are two or more offices and the amount of remaining assets is less than the aggregate amount of insufficiencies with respect to those offices, the court shall order the commissioner to distribute the remaining assets among the liquidators of the offices in the manner as the court determines is equitable.
