TITLE 26 - INSURANCE CODE
CHAPTER 28 - REHABILITATION AND LIQUIDATION
SECTION 26-28-131 - Assessment prima facie correct; notice of amount of assessment; proceedings to enforce payment.

(a) Any assessment of a subscriber or member of an insurer which the commissioner makes pursuant to the court order fixing the aggregate amount of the assessment against all members or subscribers and approving the commissioner's classification and formula under W.S. 26-28-130(a) is prima facie correct.

(b) Each member or subscriber shall be notified of the amount of his assessment by written notice mailed to the member's or subscriber's address last of record with the insurer. Failure of the member or subscriber to receive the notice so mailed, within the time specified therein or at all, is not a defense in any proceeding to collect the assessment.

(c) If any member or subscriber fails to pay the assessment within the period specified in the notice, which period shall not be less than twenty (20) days from the date of mailing the notice, the commissioner may obtain an order in the delinquency proceedings requiring the member or subscriber to show cause at a time and place fixed by the court why judgment should not be entered against the member or subscriber for the amount of the assessment together with all costs. A copy of the order and a copy of the petition therefor shall be served upon the member or subscriber within the time and in the manner designated in the order.

(d) If the subscriber or member after service of a copy of the order and petition referred to in subsection (c) of this section is made upon him:

(e) The commissioner may collect any assessment through any other lawful means.
