The court may forthwith issue a temporary injunction restraining the transaction of any business by the plan, and it may, after a full hearing, make the injunction permanent, and appoint one or more receivers to take the plan to settle its affairs, and distribute its funds to those entitled thereto, subject to such rules and orders as the court may prescribe. If it appears that a crime has been committed in connection with the sale, advertisement, administration or management of any prepaid legal services plan, the attorney general of the State of Mississippi may pursue the appropriate criminal action.","path":["Title 83.
