44-4816. Liquidation; termination of rehabilitation.

(1) Whenever the director believes further attempts to rehabilitate an insurer would substantially increase the risk of loss to insureds, creditors, or the public or would be futile, the director may petition the district court of Lancaster County for an order of liquidation. A petition under this subsection shall have the same effect as a petition under section 44-4817. The court shall permit the directors of the insurer to take such actions as are reasonably necessary to defend against the petition and may order payment from the estate of the insurer of such costs and other expenses of defense as justice may require.

(2) The protection of the interests of insureds, claimants, and the public requires the timely performance of all insurance policy obligations. If the payment of policy obligations is suspended in substantial part for a period of six months at any time after the appointment of the rehabilitator and the rehabilitator has not filed an application for approval of a plan under subsection (4) of section 44-4814, the rehabilitator shall petition the court for an order of liquidation on grounds of insolvency.

(3) The rehabilitator may at any time petition the district court of Lancaster County for an order terminating rehabilitation of an insurer. The court shall also permit the directors of the insurer to petition the court for an order terminating rehabilitation of the insurer and may order payment from the estate of the insurer of such costs and other expenses of such petition as justice may require. If upon the petition of the rehabilitator or the directors of the insurer or upon its own motion at any time the court finds that rehabilitation has been accomplished and that grounds for rehabilitation under section 44-4812 no longer exist, it shall order that the insurer be restored to possession of its property and the control of the business.
