Cal. Ins. Code § 11137
Whenever the commissioner finds from any financial statement or valuation report made to him or her by any society authorized to do business in this state or from a filed report on examination of any such society that the admitted assets of the society are less than the sum of its required reserves and accrued liabilities, the commissioner shall determine the amount of that deficiency and shall issue a written requisition to the society to remove, repair, or make good that deficiency within such period as he or she shall designate, not less than 30 days nor more than six months from the service of the requisition, except that if the commissioner believes the interests of the certificate holders of such society will best be served by extending the period of time beyond six months, he or she may do so for such period or periods of time as he or she in his or her discretion deems best. The commissioner may also by official order prohibit the society, while that deficiency exists, from issuing any new contracts of insurance in this state, and in case of a domestic society, from issuing any new contracts in this state or elsewhere. If the society fails or is unable to make good the deficiency within the time specified in the order, the commissioner shall proceed against the society under the provisions of Article 14 (commencing with Section 1010) of Chapter 1 of Part 2 of Division 1 on the ground that its further transaction of business will be hazardous to its certificate holders, its creditors, or the public. In the case of a foreign society the commissioner may also, or in lieu of that proceeding, revoke its certificate of authority to do business in this state or refuse to issue a renewal certificate of authority.
