(a) Whenever the commissioner believes further attempts to rehabilitate an insurer would substantially increase the risk of loss to creditors, policyholders or the public, or would be futile, the commissioner may petition the Superior Court for an order of liquidation. A petition under this subsection shall have the same effect as a petition pursuant to section 38a-919. The Superior Court shall permit the directors of the insurer to take such actions as are reasonably necessary to defend against the petition and may order payment from the estate of the insurer of such costs and other expenses of defense as justice may require.
(b) The rehabilitator may at any time petition the Superior Court for an order terminating rehabilitation of an insurer. The court shall also permit the directors of the insurer to petition the court for an order terminating rehabilitation of the insurer and may order payment from the estate of the insurer of such costs and other expenses of such petition as justice may require. If the Superior Court finds that rehabilitation has been accomplished and that grounds for rehabilitation pursuant to section 38a-914 no longer exist, it shall order that the insurer be restored to possession of its property and the control of its business. The Superior Court may also make that finding and issue that order at any time upon its own motion.
