Sec. 14. Every policy or certificate issued after March 9, 1897, by any corporation, association, or society doing business under this chapter and promising payment to be made upon a contingency of death or physical disability shall specify the sum of money which it promises to pay under such contingency, and the number of days after satisfactory proof of the happening thereof on which such payment shall be made. Upon the occurrence of such contingency, unless the contract shall have been avoided by fraud, or by breach of its conditions, the corporation, association, or society shall be obligated to the beneficiary for such payment, at the time and to the amount specified in the policy or certificate. If such corporation, association, or society shall refuse or fail to make such payment for sixty (60) days after final judgment has been obtained against such claim, the insurance commissioner shall notify the corporation, association, or society not to issue any new policies or certificates until such indebtedness is fully paid; and no officer or agent of the corporation, association, or society shall make, sign, or issue any policy or certificate of insurance while such notice is in force.
