(a) The commissioner may apply to the court for an order appointing him as receiver of and directing him to rehabilitate a domestic insurer if the insurer:

(ii) Refuses to submit any of its books, records, accounts or affairs to reasonable examination by the commissioner;

(iii) Conceals or removes records or assets or otherwise violates W.S. 26-24-129;

(iv) Fails to comply with the commissioner's order to make good an impairment of capital or surplus or both;

(vi) Willfully violates its charter or articles of incorporation or any law of this state;

(vii) Has an officer, director or manager who refuses to be examined under oath concerning its affairs, for which purposes the commissioner may conduct and enforce by all appropriate and available means any such examination under oath in any other state or territory of the United States in which the officer, director or manager may then presently be, to the full extent permitted by the laws of the other state or territory;

(viii) Is the subject of an application for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or sequestrator of the insurer or its property otherwise than pursuant to this code, but only if the appointment has been made or is imminent and its effect is or would be to oust the courts of this state of jurisdiction under this chapter;
