Section 16906 Of Article 9. Enforcement From California Financial Code >> Division 5. >> Chapter 12. >> Article 9.
16906
. (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.
