Section 36a-239 - (Formerly Sec. 36-52). Discharge of receiver or conservator.

(a) After a final disposition of funds as provided in sections 36a-236 and 36a-237, the receiver, upon applying to the superior court having jurisdiction and after such public notice as the court may require, may be discharged from further liability. If no plan of refinancing or reorganization has been approved by the court, the charter or certificate of incorporation of the Connecticut bank or certificate of authority of a Connecticut credit union in receivership shall be forfeited upon the discharge of the receiver from further liability.

(b) Upon a determination by the commissioner that the conditions that formed the basis for the appointment of a conservator for any Connecticut bank or Connecticut credit union no longer exist, the commissioner shall apply to the superior court having jurisdiction to have the conservator discharged from further liability. Upon appointment of a receiver for any bank or credit union that is subject to a conservatorship, the conservator shall automatically be discharged from further liability without any specific action of the commissioner or the court.
