(c) The board may recess or continue any hearing from time to time. If upon the conclusion of such hearing the board determines that the officer or director has been dishonest, reckless or incompetent in performing duties as such an officer or director, or has willfully or continuously failed to comply with any legally made order of the commissioner or board, the board may order the officer's or director's office forfeited and vacated and prohibit such officer's or director's further participation in the conduct of the affairs of any state bank or trust company in Kansas. The board shall mail a copy of its removal order to the bank or trust company which such officer or director was serving.
