Cal. Financial Code § 18538

In the event any member fails to pay an assessment when due, Guaranty Corporation shall report such default in writing to the commissioner and the defaulting member within 24 hours of such default and thereafter the rights and benefits of membership of such defaulting member in Guaranty Corporation shall be suspended and the defaulting member shall not be authorized to sell or issue its investment certificates in any form until all delinquent assessments are paid in full; provided, however, that the thrift obligations of the defaulting member shall continue to be protected as provided in this chapter. Within 30 days after default, Guaranty Corporation shall bring an action in law or in equity to enforce payment. If Guaranty Corporation does not bring such action within the time specified, the commissioner may bring an action in law or in equity to enforce such payment. Upon payment of all sums due, the member shall be reinstated and thereafter may sell and issue its investment certificates.
