its schedule of premium rates and every modification of any premium rate that it proposes
to use in this state. The premium rates shall not be subject to rebate and the rebate of premiums

Section 27-43-11 Premium rates. (a) No policy of legal expense insurance may be issued in this
state unless the premium rates for the insurance have been filed with and approved by the
commissioner. (b) Premium rates must be established and justified in accordance with generally
accepted insurance principles, including, but not limited to, the experience or judgment of
the insurer making the rate filing or actuarial computations. (c) The commissioner may disapprove
rates that are excessive, inadequate, or unfairly discriminatory. Rates are not unfairly discriminatory

policies. (d) The commissioner may require the submission of whatever relevant information
is deemed necessary in determining whether to approve or disapprove a filing made under this
section or Section 27-43-10. (Acts 1981, No. 81-719, p. 1214, ยง1.)...
