      737.340 Initiation of proceedings by aggrieved person to determine lawfulness of filings; hearing. (1) Any person aggrieved with respect to any filing that is in effect, other than the insurer or rating organization that made the filing, may make written application to the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services for a hearing on the filing. The application shall specify the grounds to be relied upon by the applicant.

      (2) If the director finds that the application is made in good faith, that the applicant would be so aggrieved if the grounds are established, and that such grounds otherwise justify holding such a hearing, the director shall do one of the following:

      (a) Issue an order under ORS 737.045 (1). The director shall not act under this paragraph if the filing concerns a rate, rating plan or rating system subject to ORS 737.320 (1).

      (b) Hold a hearing, within 30 days after receipt of such application, at a place designated by the director and upon not less than 10 days’ written notice to the applicant and to the insurer or rating organization that made the filing. [Amended by 1967 c.359 §314; 1969 c.690 §9; 1987 c.774 §145]
