§ 17334 Corporate Possession Court Challenge

Whenever the commissioner has taken possession of the property and business of Fidelity Corporation, Fidelity Corporation within 10 business days after the taking, if it deems itself aggrieved thereby, may apply to the superior court in the county in which the head office of Fidelity Corporation is located to enjoin further proceedings. The court, after citing the commissioner to show cause why further proceedings should not be enjoined, and after a hearing and a determination of the facts upon the merits, may dismiss the application or enjoin the commissioner from further proceedings and direct the commissioner to surrender the property and business to Fidelity Corporation, or make a further order as may be just. (Amended by Stats. 1985, Ch. 1560, Sec. 22. Effective October 2, 1985.)
