Section 5-17-21
Voluntary dissolution.
The process of voluntary dissolution shall be as follows: At a meeting called for that purpose (notice of which purpose must be contained in the call) two thirds of those in attendance may vote to dissolve the credit union. Notice of the meeting must have been mailed to the last known address of each member of the credit union at least 15 days prior to the date of the meeting. The Administrator of the Alabama Credit Union Administration determines whether or not the credit union is solvent. If such is the fact, he issues in duplicate a certificate to the effect that this section has been complied with. The certificate is filed with the probate judge of the county in which the credit union is located, whereupon the credit union is dissolved and shall cease to carry on business except for the purposes of liquidation. The credit union shall continue in existence for the purpose of discharging its debts, collecting and distributing its assets and doing all other acts required in order to wind up its business, and may sue and be sued for the purpose of enforcing such debts and obligations until its affairs are fully adjusted and wound up for three years.
