Universal Citation: WY Stat § 26-28-113 (2018)

26-28-113. Conduct of delinquency proceedings; foreign insurers.

(a) If under this chapter an ancillary receiver is to be appointed in delinquency proceedings for an insurer not domiciled in this state, the court shall appoint the commissioner as ancillary receiver. The commissioner shall file a petition requesting the appointment on the grounds set forth in W.S. 26-28-108 if:

(i) He finds the insurer has sufficient assets located in this state to justify the appointment of an ancillary receiver; or

(ii) Ten (10) or more persons resident in this state having claims against the insurer file a petition with the commissioner requesting the appointment of an ancillary receiver.

(b) The domiciliary receiver for the purpose of liquidating an insurer domiciled in a reciprocal state is vested by operation of law with the title to all of the insurer's property, contracts and rights of action and all of its books and records located in this state. The domiciliary receiver has the immediate right to recover balances due from local agents, to obtain possession of any of the insurer's books and records found in this state and to recover the insurer's other assets located in this state, except that upon the appointment of an ancillary receiver in this state, the ancillary receiver, during the ancillary receivership proceedings, has sole right to recover the other assets. The ancillary receiver, as soon as practicable, shall liquidate from the securities those special deposit claims and secured claims which are proved and allowed in the ancillary proceedings in this state and shall pay the necessary expenses of the proceedings. He shall promptly transfer all remaining assets to the domiciliary receiver. Subject to the provisions of this subsection, the ancillary receiver and his deputies have the same powers and are subject to the same duties with respect to the administration of the assets as a receiver of an insurer domiciled in this state.

(c) The domiciliary receiver of an insurer domiciled in the reciprocal state may sue in this state to recover any of the insurer's assets to which he is entitled under the laws of this state.
