Sec. 443.402.  DOMICILIARY RECEIVERS APPOINTED IN OTHER STATES.  (a)  A domiciliary receiver appointed in another state is vested by operation of law with title to, and may summarily take possession of, all property and records of the insurer in this state.  Notwithstanding any other provision of law regarding special deposits, special deposits held in this state shall be, upon the entry of an order of liquidation with a finding of insolvency, distributed to the guaranty associations in this state as early access payments subject to Section 443.303, in relation to the lines of business for which the special deposits were made.  The holder of any special deposit shall account to the domiciliary receiver for all distributions from the special deposit at the time of the distribution.  The statutory provisions of another state and all orders entered by courts of competent jurisdiction in relation to the appointment of a domiciliary receiver of an insurer and any related proceedings in another state must be given full faith and credit in this state.  For purposes of this section, "another state" means any state other than this state.  This state shall treat any other state than this state as a reciprocal state.(b)  Upon appointment of a domiciliary receiver in another state, the commissioner shall, unless otherwise agreed by the receiver, immediately transfer title to and possession of all property of the insurer under the commissioner's control, including all statutory general or special deposits, to the receiver.(c)  Except as provided in Subsection (a), the domiciliary receiver shall handle special deposits and special deposit claims in accordance with federal law and the statutes pursuant to which the special deposits are required.  All amounts in excess of the estimated amount necessary to administer the special deposit and pay the unpaid special deposit claims are deemed general assets of the estate.  If there is a deficiency in any special deposit so that the claims secured by the special deposit are not fully discharged from the deposit, the claimants may share in the general assets of the insurer to the extent of the deficiency at the same priority as other claimants in their class of priority under Section 443.301, but the sharing must be deferred until the other claimants of their class have been paid percentages of their claims equal to the percentage paid from the special deposit.  The intent of this provision is to equalize to this extent the advantage gained by the security provided by the special deposits.|Added by Acts 2005, 79th Leg., Ch. 995 (H.B. 2157), Sec. 1, eff.
