(2) The court may approve, disapprove, or modify the liquidator's report on claims. Claims allowed in any report not modified by the court within a period of sixty days after submission by the liquidator shall be treated by the liquidator as allowed claims, subject thereafter to later modification or to rulings made by the court pursuant to section 10-3-538. No claim under a policy of insurance shall be allowed for an amount in excess of the applicable policy limits.
