§ 33-12-15. Limitation Period for Settlement or Renewal of Claims Against Deposits of Insurers; Procedure Upon Settlement of Claims

Whenever a notice of claim is filed with the Commissioner as provided by law against the deposit of any insurance company doing business in Georgia and said claim has not been withdrawn at the expiration of seven years from the date of the notice of claim, the Commissioner is authorized to treat the notice as void and not binding unless the notice of claim is renewed within said seven-year period.
