B. The commissioner of insurance may file a petition for an order of rehabilitation or liquidation pursuant to this Section on any of the following grounds: (1) Upon determination and notification given by the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States in consultation with the president of the United States that the insurance company is a financial company satisfying the requirements of 12 U.S.C. 5383(b), and the board of directors, or any body performing similar functions, of the insurance company acquiesces or consents to the appointment of a receiver pursuant to 12 U.S.C. 5382(a)(1)(A)(i), with such consent to be considered as consent to an order of rehabilitation or liquidation. (2) Upon an order of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia under 12 U.S.C. 5382(a)(1)(A)(iv)(I) granting the petition of the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States concerning the insurance company under 12 U.S.C. 5382(a)(1)(A)(i).

D. If the receivership court does not make a determination on a petition for rehabilitation or liquidation filed by the commissioner pursuant to this Section within twenty-four hours after its filing, then the petition shall be deemed granted by operation of law upon the expiration of the twenty-four hour period.

F. Any order of rehabilitation or liquidation granted pursuant to this Section or any part thereof shall not be subject to any stay or injunction pending appeal. G. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to supersede or impair any other power or authority of the commissioner or the court under this Code. H. There shall be no liability on the part of, and no cause of action of any nature shall arise against, the department or its employees, or the commissioner or his designee in his capacity as receiver, rehabilitator, liquidator, or conservator, or otherwise, or a special deputy, or the receiver's assistants or the receiver's contractors for any action taken by them in the performance of their powers and duties pursuant to this Section or their duties under this Chapter.
