  (2)  If a family trust company affiliated party is charged with a felony in a state or federal court or, in a court of a foreign country with which the United States maintains diplomatic relations, is charged with an offense that involves a violation of law relating to fraud, currency transaction reporting, money laundering, theft, or moral turpitude and such offense is equivalent to a felony charge under state or federal law, then the secretary or the secretary's designee may enter an emergency order that suspends the family trust company affiliated party or that restricts or prohibits participation by such party in the affairs of the family trust company effective upon service of the order on the company and such family trust company affiliated party.

  6.  No family trust company affiliated party removed from office under this section shall be eligible for reinstatement to such office or to any other official position in a family trust company or financial institution in this state except with the written consent of the secretary.  A family trust company affiliated party who is removed, restricted, or prohibited from participation in the affairs of a family trust company under this section may petition the secretary for modification or termination of such removal, restriction, or prohibition.

  7.  The resignation, termination of employment or participation, or separation from a family trust company of the family trust company affiliated party shall not affect the jurisdiction and authority of the secretary or the secretary's designee to issue a notice and proceed under this section against the family trust company affiliated party if such notice is served within six years of the date such person ceased to be a family trust company affiliated party.
