Tex.
Fin. Code Section 36.223
Fiduciary Activities
(a)
As soon after beginning the receivership proceeding as is practicable, the receiver shall:(1)
terminate all fiduciary positions the bank holds;(2)
surrender all property held by the bank as a fiduciary; and(3)
settle the bank’s fiduciary accounts.(b)
The receiver shall release all segregated and identifiable fiduciary property held by the bank to successor fiduciaries.(c)
With the approval of the court, the receiver may sell the administration of all or substantially all remaining fiduciary accounts to one or more successor fiduciaries on terms that appear to be in the best interests of the bank’s estate and the persons interested in the fiduciary accounts.(d)
If commingled fiduciary money held by the bank as trustee is insufficient to satisfy all fiduciary claims to the commingled money, the receiver shall distribute commingled money pro rata to all fiduciary claimants of commingled money based on their proportionate interests after payment of administrative expenses related solely to the fiduciary claims. The fictional tracing rule does not apply. To the extent of any unsatisfied fiduciary claim to commingled money, a claimant to commingled trust money is entitled to the same priority as a depositor of the bank.(e)
Subject to Subsection (d), if the bank has lost fiduciary money or property through misappropriation or otherwise, a claimant to the missing fiduciary money or property is entitled to the same priority as a depositor of the bank.(f)
The receiver may require a fiduciary claimant to file a proof of claim if the records of the bank are insufficient to identify the claimant’s interest.
