§ 624. Acceptance and rejection of claims and accounts; filing of list   thereof;  secured  claims  and accounts; determination of priorities. 1.   The superintendent shall, not later than sixty days after the  time  has   expired  to  file objections to claims duly presented, accept or reject,   in whole or in part, every duly filed claim except claims  as  to  which   objections  are  still  pending  undetermined by the court and accept or   reject, in whole or in part, every account payable as shown by the books   and records and as to which no claim has been presented except  accounts   as  to  which  objections  are  still pending undetermined by the court.   Whenever the superintendent accepts a portion of a claim or account  and   rejects  the  remainder,  the  portion accepted and the portion rejected   shall, for the purposes of this article, each be deemed separate  claims   or accounts as the case may be.2.  No  claim  or account of any secured claimant or creditor shall be   accepted at a sum greater than the difference between the value  of  the   claim  or  account without security and the value of the security itself   as of the commencement  of  the  liquidation,  unless  the  claimant  or   creditor  shall,  prior  to  the  expiration  of  the  time fixed by the   superintendent for the presentation of claims, surrender his security to   the superintendent, in which event the claim or account may be  accepted   in the full amount for which it is valued.3. Every claim or account payable accepted by the superintendent shall   be  endorsed  "accepted"  and  filed  so  endorsed in his office. If the   superintendent is unable, from the books, accounts  or  records  of  the   banking  organization,  to determine the ownership of a claim or account   payable or if for any other reason he doubts the justice or validity  of   any  claim  or  account  payable,  he shall reject such claim or account   payable and shall endorse the same "rejected" and file it as so endorsed   in his office.  He shall cause notice of such acceptance or rejection to   be mailed within fourteen calendar days  after  the  superintendent  has   accepted  or  rejected all claims duly filed. Where a proof of claim has   been filed, such notice need be mailed only  to  the  address  appearing   thereon, and where no proof of claim has been filed, only to the address   appearing  upon  the  books of the banking organization. Where, however,   the superintendent is unable from the proof of claim or  the  books  and   records  of the banking organization to identify a name or address, such   notice of rejection need not be given.4. Within  thirty  days  after  the  superintendent  has  accepted  or   rejected all claims duly filed, and all accounts payable as shown by the   books  and  records  as to which no claims have been presented, he shall   make a list of all such claims and accounts accepted or rejected by  him   and  file  one  copy thereof in his office and one copy with the supreme   court in the judicial district in which the  principal  office  of  such   banking organization is located.5.  The superintendent shall not determine priorities, in accepting or   rejecting claims and the acceptance by the superintendent of a claim  in   which  priority of payment is demanded shall not entitle the claimant to   priority. Accepted claims in which priority of payment is duly  demanded   shall  be  presented  to the supreme court on notice to the claimant for   determination as to their priority of payment. All  claims  entitled  to   priority of payment shall be paid ratably and proportionately.
