as it considers proper, make and enter an order adjudging the insurer to be insolvent.
[PL 2025, c. 348, §36 (AMD).]
2. After the entry of the order of insolvency, regardless of any prior notice that may have been
given to creditors, the superintendent shall notify all persons who may have claims against the insurer
to file such claims with him, at a place and within the time specified in the notice, or that such claims
shall be forever barred. The time specified in the notice shall be as fixed by the court for filing of claims
and which shall be not less than 6 months after the entry of the order of insolvency. The notice shall be
given in such manner and for such reasonable period of time as may be ordered by the court.
