Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
Whenever any railroad corporation, by foreclosure of a mortgage or in any other method authorized
by law, has finally parted with its franchise to construct, operate and maintain the railroad described in
its charter, any stockholder may maintain a civil action in the Superior Court for the winding up of the
affairs and dissolution of that corporation. In such case the court shall order such notice to all parties
interested as it may deem proper and proceed according to the usual course of civil actions. No trustee
may be appointed, except upon motion of some party to the proceedings and then only in the discretion
of the court. [PL 1987, c. 141, Pt. A, §4 (NEW).]
