§876. Involuntary dissolution; inventory
A. As soon as practicable the commissioner shall make or cause to be made in duplicate an inventory of all the property and other assets of the association. One copy shall be retained by him or his special agent and one copy shall be filed in the record of the proceedings.
B.(1) As soon as practicable after taking possession of an association the commissioner shall publish a notice at least once a week for three months in such newspapers of the parish of the association's domicile as he may select, calling upon all persons who have claims, either as creditor, stockholder, member or otherwise, to file such claims with him and make legal proof thereof at a place and within a time not later than the last day of publication of the notice, which day shall be specified in the notice.
(2) If the commissioner doubts the justice or validity of any claim filed he may reject it.
(3) An action upon a rejected claim shall be brought within six months after the date of the rejection.
(4) The commissioner shall investigate fully the validity of the accounts of any member or stockholder who has failed to present his claim at the place and within the time specified in the notice. If after this investigation these claims are found to be correct, they shall be recognized.
(5) The stockholder or member holding an account or shares of the association shall participate in an equitable and ratable proportion in the distribution of the assets or the proceeds of the assets, whether in cash or in shares or stock in other associations. However, all charges and expenses of administration and all claims of creditors duly proved shall first be paid.
C.(1) If for any reason any member or stockholder has failed to file his claim with the commissioner, or if for any reason whatever any distributive shares or the equitable and ratable proportion thereof have remained uncalled for and unnoticed by a member or stockholder for a period of six months after the giving of the notice hereinabove provided for, the commissioner shall deliver such distributive shares or savings accounts or the equitable and ratable proportion thereof to the state treasurer, giving names, amounts, and the addresses of the members or stockholders as shown on the books of the association.
(2) Distributive shares or savings accounts or the equitable and ratable proportion thereof delivered or paid to the state treasurer may be recovered upon proper identification and proof of claim as may be required by the state treasurer.
(3) Whenever delivery has been made, the commissioner and his special agents are relieved from any further liability.
