the affairs of such licensee, the commissioner may:

which the principal office of the licensee is located for an order
confirming any action taken by the commissioner, or authorizing the
commissioner to do any act or execute any instrument not expressly
authorized by this part. The order shall be given after a hearing on
such notice as the court prescribes.
