APPOINTMENT OF CUSTODIAN OR RECEIVER OF CORPORATION
ON DEADLOCK OR FOR OTHER CAUSE
A.  The district court, upon application of any shareholder, may
appoint one or more persons to be custodians, and, if the
corporation is insolvent, to be receivers, of and for any
corporation when:
1.  At any meeting held for the election of directors the
shareholders are so divided that they have failed to elect
successors to directors whose terms have expired or would have
expired upon qualification of their successors;
2.  The business of the corporation is suffering or is
threatened with irreparable injury because the directors are so
divided respecting the management of the affairs of the corporation
that the required vote for action by the board of directors cannot
be obtained and the shareholders are unable to terminate this
division; or
3.  The corporation has abandoned its business and has failed
within a reasonable time to take steps to dissolve, liquidate or
distribute its assets.
B.  A custodian appointed pursuant to the provisions of this
section shall have all the powers and title of a receiver appointed
by the court under applicable law, but the authority of the
custodian is to continue the business of the corporation and not to
liquidate its affairs and distribute its assets, except when the
court shall otherwise order and except in cases arising pursuant to
paragraph 3 of subsection A of this section.
C.  In the case of a charitable nonstock corporation, the
applicant shall provide a copy of any application referred to in
subsection A of this section to the Attorney General of this state
within one (1) week of its filing with the district court.
