If any credit union fails to make the report prescribed by KRS 286.6-090 within
fifteen (15) days after it is due, or fails to pay the charges required by this
subtitle, including the charges for delay in filing reports, the commissioner shall
give notice to the credit union of his intention to revoke the certificate of
approval of the corporation. If failure continues for fifteen (15) days after the
notice, the commissioner may, in his discretion, revoke the certificate of
approval and take possession of the property and business of the credit union
until such time as the commissioner permits it to resume business, or until its
affairs are liquidated.
If the commissioner has knowledge or reasonable cause to believe that any
credit union, or any director, officer, employee, agent, or other person
participating in the conduct of the affairs of the credit union has engaged in
violations of law, or charter, bylaw, or administrative regulation of the
department, or in unsafe or unsound business practices, or a breach of any
written agreement with the department, the commissioner may issue and serve
upon the credit union, director, officer, employee, agent, or other person a
notice of charges containing a statement of facts with respect to alleged
violations or practices and shall fix the time and place at which an
administrative hearing shall be held to determine whether an order to cease
and desist should issue against the credit union, director, officer, employee,
agent, or other person. The hearing shall be conducted in accordance with
KRS Chapter 13B.
Unless the party or parties so served shall appear at the hearing personally or
by a duly-authorized representative, they shall be deemed to have consented
to the issuance of the cease and desist order.
If there is consent, or if upon the record made at any hearing the commissioner
shall find that any violation or unsafe or unsound practice specified in the
notice of charges has been established, the commissioner may issue and
serve upon the credit union, director, officer, employee, agent, or other person
a final order to cease and desist from any violation or practice and, further, to
take affirmative action to correct the conditions resulting from any violation or
practice.
If the commissioner shall determine that the violation or practice, as specified
in the notice of charges pursuant to subsection (2) of this section, or the
continuation thereof, is likely to cause insolvency or substantial dissipation of
assets or earnings of the credit union, or is likely to otherwise seriously
prejudice the interests of its members, the commissioner may issue an
emergency order pursuant to KRS 13B.125 requiring the credit union, director,
officer, employee, agent, or other person to immediately upon service cease
and desist from any violation or practice.
Unless set aside, limited, or suspended, as provided by subsection (7) of this
section, an emergency cease and desist order shall remain effective and
enforceable pending completion of the administrative hearing.
Within ten (10) days after service of an emergency cease and desist order, the
party or parties served may apply to the Circuit Court of the residence of the
(8)
individual or of the principal office of the credit union for an injunction setting
aside, limiting, or suspending the enforcement, operation, or effectiveness of
the order pending completion of an administrative hearing, and the court shall
have jurisdiction to issue an injunction.
In the case of violation or threatened violation of, or failure to obey, an
emergency cease and desist order or a cease and desist order issued pursuant
to this section, the commissioner may apply to the Circuit Court of the
residence of the individual or of the principal office of the credit union for an
injunction to enforce the order, and it shall be the duty of the court to issue the
injunction.
