Sec. 96.254. HEARING ON COMMISSIONER'S ORDER. (a) Not later than the second day, excluding legal holidays, after the date on which the commissioner closes a savings bank under Section 96.252, the savings bank, by resolution of its board, may sue in a district court of Travis County to prohibit the commissioner from taking further action under this subchapter.
(b) The court may restrain the commissioner from taking further action until a hearing on the suit is held. If the court restrains the commissioner, the court shall instruct the commissioner to hold the assets and affairs of the savings bank in the commissioner's possession until disposition of the suit. On receipt of this instruction, the commissioner shall refrain from taking further action, other than a necessary or proper action approved by the court to prevent loss or depreciation in the value of the assets.
(c) The court as soon as possible shall hear the suit and shall enter a judgment prohibiting or refusing to prohibit the commissioner from proceeding under this subchapter.
(d) The commissioner, regardless of the judgment entered by the court or any supersedeas bond filed, retains possession of the savings bank's assets until final disposition of any appeal of the judgment.
