SECTION 38-27-480. Claims of holders of voidable rights.

(a) No claim of a creditor who has received or acquired a preference, lien, conveyance, transfer, assignment, or encumbrance voidable under this chapter is allowed unless he surrenders the preference, lien, conveyance, transfer, assignment, or encumbrance. If the avoidance is effected by a proceeding in which a final judgment has been entered, the claim may not be allowed unless the money is paid or the property is delivered to the liquidator within thirty days from the date of the entering of the final judgment, except that the court having jurisdiction over the liquidation may allow further time if there is an appeal or other continuation of the proceeding.

(b) A claim allowable under subsection (a) of this section by reason of the avoidance, whether voluntary or involuntary, or a preference, a lien, conveyance, transfer, assignment, or encumbrance, may be filed as an excused late filing under Section 38-27-540 if filed within thirty days from the date of the avoidance or within the further time allowed by the court under subsection (a) of this section.
