§ 32.204. LOAN PRODUCTION OFFICES. (a) A state bank may
establish one or more loan production offices for the purpose of
soliciting loans or equivalent transactions, accepting loan
applications, and performing ministerial duties related to
consummating a granted loan, such as execution of loan documents
and dispensation of loan proceeds by check or other draft,
including a certified or cashier's check, but not by cash. A credit

office.
(b) The bank shall notify the banking commissioner in

loan production office, except that the banking commissioner may
waive or shorten the period if the banking commissioner does not
have a significant supervisory or regulatory concern regarding the
bank or its planned loan production office.
