Section 406-B:9 - Investigation and Disclosure of Insurance ContractsI.Whenever the commissioner has reason to believe that insurance has been effectuated by or for any person in this state with an unauthorized insurer, the commissioner shall in writing order such person to produce for examination all insurance contracts and other documents evidencing insurance with both authorized and unauthorized insurers and to disclose to the commissioner the amount of insurance, name and address of each insurer, gross amount of premium paid or to be paid and the name and address of the person or persons assisting or aiding in the solicitation, negotiation or effectuation of such insurance.II.Every person who, for 30 days after such written order pursuant to paragraph I, neglects to comply with the requirements of such order or who willfully makes a disclosure that is untrue, deceptive, or misleading shall forfeit $50 and an additional $50 for each day of neglect after expiration of said 30 days.III.Whenever the commissioner believes, from evidence satisfactory to him, that any insurer is violating or about to violate the provisions of this act, the commissioner may, with the assistance of the attorney general of this state, cause a complaint to be filed in the Merrimack county superior court to enjoin and restrain such insurer from continuing such violation or engaging therein or doing any act in furtherance thereof. The court shall have jurisdiction of the proceeding and shall have the power to make and enter an order or judgment awarding such preliminary or final injunctive relief as in its judgment is proper. 1967, 237:1. 1969, 260:5, eff.
