9-1916. Same; action to enforce liability; evidence. In all actions brought for the recovery of any deposits received or debt created while any bank was insolvent or in failing circumstances all officers, agents, and directors of such bank may be joined as defendants or proceeded against severally. The fact that any bank was insolvent or in failing circumstances at the time of the reception of the deposit charged to have been so received, or the creation of the debt charged to have been so created, shall be prima facie evidence of such knowledge and assent to such deposit or creation of such debt on the part of such officer, agent, or director so charged therewith. This liability may be enforced by and against executors and administrators of any deceased officer, director or agent. |
