Section 9-1807 - Cease and desist orders; institution of proceedings by commissioner; hearing by board; issuance; temporary orders of commissioner(a) If the commissioner finds that any bank or trust company is engaging, has engaged or is about to engage in an unsafe or unsound practice or if the commissioner finds that any bank or trust company is violating, has violated or is about to violate a law, rule and regulation or order of the commissioner or state banking board, the commissioner may issue and serve upon the bank or trust company a notice of charges. The notice of charges shall contain a statement of the facts that forms the basis for a proposed cease and desist order and shall state the time and place at which a hearing will be held by the state banking board to determine whether an order to cease and desist therefrom should be issued by the state banking board against the bank or trust company. Such hearing shall be fixed for a date not earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days after service of such notice.(b) Unless the bank or trust company shall appear at the hearing, such bank or trust company shall be deemed to have consented to the issuance of the cease and desist order. In the event of such consent, or if upon the record made at any such hearing, the state banking board shall find that any unsafe or unsound practice or violation specified in the notice of charges has been established, the state banking board may issue and serve upon the bank or trust company an order to cease and desist from any such practice or violation. Such order may require the bank or trust company and such bank's or trust company's directors, officers, employees or agents to cease and desist or to take affirmative action to correct the conditions resulting from any such practice or violation. A cease and desist order shall become effective at the time specified therein and shall remain effective and enforceable as provided therein, except to such extent as it is stayed, modified or terminated by the state banking board.(c) Whenever the commissioner finds that a bank's or trust company's unsafe or unsound practice or violation, or the continuation thereof, is likely to cause insolvency, substantial dissipation of assets or earnings or is likely to otherwise seriously prejudice the interests of the bank's depositors or trust company's clients, the commissioner may issue a temporary order requiring the bank or trust company to cease and desist from any such practice or violation. The order shall contain a notice of charges with a statement of the facts that forms the basis for a proposed temporary cease and desist order. Such order shall be effective upon service on the bank or trust company and shall remain effective and enforceable pending the completion of the proceedings pursuant to such notice and until such time as the state banking board shall dismiss the charges specified in such notice, or if a cease and desist order is issued against the bank or trust company, until the effective date of any such order.Amended by L. 2016, ch. 54,§ 51, eff. 7/1/2016.Amended by L. 2015, ch. 38,§ 115, eff. 7/1/2015.L. 1975, ch. 44, § 1; July 1.
