If the secretary of state denies a cooperative's application for reinstatement following administrative dissolution, he shall serve the corporation under § 47-15-22 with a written notice that explains the reason or reasons for denial. The cooperative may appeal the denial of reinstatement to the circuit court wherein its registered office is located within thirty days after service of the notice of denial is perfected. The cooperative appeals by petitioning the court to set aside the dissolution and attaching to the petition copies of the secretary of state's certificate of dissolution, the cooperative's application for reinstatement, and the secretary of state's notice of denial. The court may summarily order the secretary of state to reinstate the dissolved cooperative or may take other action the court considers appropriate. The court's final decision may be appealed as in any other civil proceedings.
