(1) If the Board finds that any association: (a) is in an impaired condition; (b) is engaging in practices which threaten to result in an impaired condition; or (c) is in violation of an order or injunction, as provided in Section 34-24-710, which has become final in that the time to appeal has expired without appeal or a final order has been entered from which there can be no appeal, the Board may appoint a receiver for the association, which may be the chairman of the Board, his deputy, or any other person and, upon this appointment, shall apply immediately to the circuit court in the county in which the home office of the association is located and, in the case of a foreign association doing business in this State, the county in which its registered office in this State is located, for confirmation of the appointment, and the court has exclusive jurisdiction to determine the issues and all related matters. These proceedings must be given precedence over other cases pending in the court and must in every way be expedited. The court shall confirm the appointment if it finds that one or more of the grounds specified in this section exist, and a certified copy of the order of the court confirming the appointment is evidence of confirmation thereof. In the case of an insured association, the appointment by the Board of a receiver under this section constitutes an official determination of a public authority in this State pursuant to which a receiver is appointed for the purpose of liquidation as contemplated by and within the meaning of Section 401(d) of the National Housing Act of 1934, as amended, if, within ten days after the date the application of the Board is filed, confirmation of the appointment or denial of confirmation has not been issued by the court. The receiver has all the powers and authority of a conservator plus the power to liquidate and shall have those other powers and authority as may be expressed in the order of the court. If the chairman of the Board, or his deputy, or an employee of the Board is appointed receiver, he shall receive no additional compensation, but if another person is appointed, then the compensation of the receiver, as determined by the court, must be paid from the assets of the association. (2) If the association is an institution insured by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation, the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation must be tendered appointment as receiver or coreceiver. If it accepts the appointment, it may still make loans on the security of or purchase at public or private sale any part or all of the assets of the association of which it is receiver or coreceiver, provided the loan or purchase is approved by the court. (3) The procedure in the receivership action must be in all other respects in accordance with the practice in the court where the action was filed, including all rights of appeal and review. The directors, officers, and attorneys of an association in office at the time of the initiation of any proceeding under this or the preceding section are expressly authorized to contest the proceeding and must be reimbursed for reasonable expenses and attorney fees by the association or from its assets. Any court having a proceeding before it shall allow and order paid reasonable expenses and attorney fees for the directors, officers, and attorneys.
