Sec. 186.227. ASSETS DISCOVERED AFTER CLOSE OF RECEIVERSHIP. (a) The banking commissioner shall report to the court discovery of an asset having value that:

(1) the banking commissioner discovers after the receivership was closed by final order of the court; and

(2) was abandoned as worthless or unknown during receivership.

(b) The court may reopen the receivership proceeding for continued liquidation if the value of the after-discovered assets justifies the reopening.

(c) If the banking commissioner suspects that the information concerning after-disclosed assets may have been intentionally or fraudulently concealed, the banking commissioner shall notify appropriate civil and criminal authorities to determine any applicable penalties.
