183.0706 Court proceedings.

(1) A dissolved limited liability company that has published a notice under s. 183.0705 may file an application with the circuit court in the county where the company's principal office is located or, if the principal office is not located in this state, where the office of its registered agent is or was last located, for a determination of the amount and form of security to be provided for payment of claims that are reasonably expected to arise after the date of dissolution based on facts known to the company which, at the time of application, are contingent or have not been made known to the company or which are based on an event occurring after the date of dissolution.

(2) Security is not required for any claim that is or is reasonably anticipated to be barred under s. 183.0705.

(5) A dissolved limited liability company that provides security in the amount and form ordered by the court under sub. (1) satisfies the company's obligations with respect to claims that are contingent, have not been made known to the company, or are based on an event occurring after the date of dissolution, and such claims may not be enforced against a member or transferee on account of assets received in liquidation.
