If the commissioner, as a result of any examination or from any report made to the commissioner, or otherwise, finds that any association or any director, officer, or employee of any association is violating its charter or bylaws, this chapter, the laws of this state or of the United States or any lawful order or regulation of the commissioner, the commissioner shall deliver to the board of directors of the association a formal written order, in which are set forth the facts known to the commissioner, demanding the immediate discontinuance of the violation and conformance with all applicable requirements of this chapter, and any rules or regulations promulgated under this chapter. The order shall be delivered in person to the home office of the association in question by the commissioner or by the commissioner's agent or shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the home office of the association in question. The order shall be effective from the time of receipt of the order by the association at its home office, and shall include a notice that the person or persons affected shall have the opportunity to request a hearing. If a hearing is so requested and held, the commissioner, on the basis of the evidence presented and any matters of record in the commissioner's office, shall either continue the order in effect, modify the same, or set it aside.
