California Insurance Code § 11621.4

(a) New plan assignments to a participating insurer may be suspended or a participating insurer may be relieved of its obligation to renew existing assigned risk policies at expiration when a valid order of suspension is issued by the commissioner and the suspension of assignments or policy renewals is approved by the commissioner. Prior to the approval of a suspension of assignments or policy renewals, the plan’s advisory committee shall advise the commissioner as to whether or not it recommends approval or denial of the suspension. (b) If an insurer granted relief pursuant to subdivision (a) resumes writing business in this state, its quota shall reflect the plan assignments it would have received and the assigned risk renewal policies it would have issued during its period of suspension. The required assignment adjustment shall be spread over a period of three or more years, as determined by the commissioner. Prior to determining this assignment adjustment, the plan’s advisory committee shall advise the commissioner as to whether or not it recommends approval or denial of the adjustment. (c) The adjustment of the insurer’s quota shall be a percentage of the insurer’s under-assignments as determined by the commissioner. Prior to determining this adjustment, the plans’s advisory committee shall advise the commissioner as to whether or not it recommends approval or denial of the adjustment. After the approved period of adjustment has expired, the insurer’s normal quota will resume unless the insurer shows good cause to and receives approval from the commissioner for extension of the adjustment period. Prior to this approval, the plan’s advisory committee shall advise the commissioner as to whether or not it recommends approval or denial of this extension.
