Section 16903.

(a) If the commissioner finds that any of the factors set forth in Section 16902 is true with respect to any foreign (other nation) credit union that is licensed to maintain an office and that it is necessary for the protection of the interests of creditors of the foreign (other nation) credit union's business in this state or, in any case, for the protection of the public interest that the commissioner immediately suspend or revoke the license of the foreign (other nation) credit union, the commissioner may issue an order suspending or revoking the license of the foreign (other nation) credit union.

(b) (1) Within 30 days after an order is issued pursuant to subdivision (a), the foreign (other nation) credit union to which the order is issued may file with the commissioner an application for a hearing on the order. If the commissioner fails to commence the hearing within 15 business days after the application is filed with the commissioner (or within any longer period to which the foreign (other nation) credit union consents), the order shall be deemed rescinded. Within 30 days after the hearing, the commissioner shall affirm, modify, or rescind the order; otherwise, the order shall be deemed rescinded.

(2) The right of any foreign (other nation) credit union to which an order is issued under subdivision (a) to petition for judicial review of the order shall not be affected by the failure of the foreign (other nation) credit union to apply to the commissioner for a hearing on the order pursuant to paragraph (1).
