(a) If a cooperative does not allow a member who complies with § 43-38-530(a) to inspect and copy any records required by that subsection to be available for inspection, a court in the county where the cooperative's principal executive office, or, if none in this state, its registered office, is located may summarily order inspection and copying of the records demanded at the cooperative's expense upon application of the member.
(b) If the court orders inspection and copying of the records demanded, it shall also order the cooperative to pay the member's costs, including reasonable counsel fees, incurred to obtain the order, if the member proves that the cooperative refused inspection without a reasonable basis for doubt about the right of the member to inspect the records demanded.
(c) If the court orders inspection and copying of the records demanded, it may impose reasonable restrictions on the use or distribution of the records by the demanding member.
