RS 6:122
§122. Power to issue cease and desist orders
A.(1) The commissioner shall have the power to issue cease and desist orders to prevent or terminate an unsafe or unsound practice or condition or a violation of any Section of this Title or any regulation or order of the commissioner issued pursuant to this Title whenever he knows or has reasonable cause to believe that such practice exists or is likely to occur.
(2)Before issuing a cease and desist order, the commissioner shall send by registered mail a notice containing a statement of the facts constituting the grounds for issuance of the cease and desist order and fixing a time and place at which a meeting with the alleged violator or violators, whether they be a financial institution, its officers, directors, stockholders, employees, or any combination thereof, will be held to determine whether an order to cease and desist therefrom should be issued. If the violator fails to appear at the meeting, it shall be deemed to have consented to the issuance of a cease and desist order. In the event of such consent or if after the meeting the commissioner should find that the grounds specified in the notice have been established, the commissioner may issue an order to cease and desist from the violation or practice. Such order may require the violator to cease and desist from any such violations or practice and to further take affirmative action to correct the conditions resulting from such violation or practice.
B. Any order issued pursuant to this Section shall become effective upon service thereof in person or by registered mail on the violator, and shall remain effective except to the extent modified, stayed, terminated, or set aside by action of the commissioner or of the district court of the judicial district in which the state bank is domiciled.
C. The commissioner may apply to the district court in the parish of domicile of the violator for the enforcement of any order issued pursuant to this Section and such court shall have the jurisdiction and power to order and require compliance therewith.
D. All proceedings other than judicial proceedings pursuant to this Section shall be exempt from the Public Records Act as provided in R.S. 44:4.
