Title 34 - Banking, Financial Institutions and Money
CHAPTER 28 - SAVINGS ASSOCIATIONS
SECTION 34-28-710. Board may order association to discontinue any illegal practice.
If the Board as a result of any examination or from any report made to it finds that any association, savings and loan holding company, or any service corporation or subsidiary thereof is violating the provisions of its articles of incorporation or bylaws, the laws of this State or of the United States, or any lawful order or regulation of the Board, it shall by a formal written order delivered to the home office state any alleged violation, together with a statement of the facts alleged to constitute the violation, and order discontinuance of the violation and conformance with all requirements of law. The order shall specify the effective date thereof, which may be immediate or may be at a later date, and it shall remain in effect until withdrawn by the Board or until terminated by a court order. The order of the Board, upon application made on or after the effective date thereof by the Board to the circuit court in the county in which the home office of the association or organization is located, may be enforced ex parte and without notice by an order to comply entered by the court. These proceedings must be given precedence over other cases pending in the court and must in every way be expedited by the court. Any association or company affected by an order of the Board shall, after receipt thereof, have the right to apply within thirty days to any court of competent jurisdiction for an immediate hearing and order suspending the order of the Board until such time as the hearing has been completed. The hearing of the application to the court must be upon that notice to the Board as the court shall provide. Whether upon application by the Board or by the association or other company, the court shall have power to and shall adjudicate the question and enter the proper orders and enforce the same.
