All proceedings in which any individual self-insurer in default or group self-insurer in default is a party before the commission or in any court in this state, on order of the commission, may be stayed for a period not to exceed six (6) months from the date of the default to permit proper defense by such association of all covered claims. If any judgment, order, decision, verdict or finding is made or entered against such individual self-insurer in default or group self-insurer in default while the stay provided in this section is effective, the association to which such individual self-insurer or group self-insurer belongs may apply to have such judgment, order, decision, verdict or finding set aside by the same court or administrator that made such judgment, order, decision, verdict or finding. Such association shall be permitted to enter its appearance and defend against any covered claim which is pending on the date of default or which is filed thereafter.
