Cal. Civ. Code § 441.600
The receiver shall be discharged upon rendering a full and complete accounting to the court when the conditions giving rise to the receivership have been removed and the cost thereof, and all other costs authorized by sections 441.500 to 441.640, have been paid or reimbursed and any surplus money has been paid over to the owner or the mortgagee or any lienor as the court may direct. However, at any time, the receiver may be discharged upon filing his account as receiver without affecting the right of the code enforcement agency to its lien. Upon the removal of the condition giving rise to the receivership, the owner, the mortgagee or lienor may apply for the discharge of the receiver upon payment to the receiver of all moneys expended by the receiver for removal of such condition and all other costs authorized by sections 441.500 to 441.640 which have not been paid or reimbursed.

Plain English

Missouri Revised Statutes § 441.600 establishes the conditions under which a court-appointed receiver overseeing a rental property may be released from their duties. A receiver is discharged when they have provided the court with a full accounting, the underlying housing-code violations have been corrected, and all associated costs have been paid or reimbursed, with any remaining funds directed to the property owner or lienholders as the court orders. The statute also allows a receiver to be discharged at any time by filing their account, without extinguishing the code enforcement agency's lien, and permits owners, mortgagees, or lienors to seek discharge themselves once violations are remedied and all receiver costs are reimbursed.

For Property Managers

Under Mo. Rev. Stat. § 441.600, property owners who find themselves subject to a receivership can actively work toward ending that arrangement by correcting the conditions that triggered it and reimbursing all costs the receiver has incurred under the §§ 441.500–441.640 framework. Compliant operators typically document remediation efforts thoroughly and coordinate with the court to demonstrate that violations have been resolved before applying for the receiver's discharge. Owners, mortgagees, or lienors may formally apply to the court for discharge once all financial obligations to the receiver have been satisfied, making timely remediation and cost reimbursement central to regaining full control of the property.

For Tenants

Mo. Rev. Stat. § 441.600 is part of Missouri's receivership framework, which is designed to ensure that substandard rental properties are brought into compliance under court supervision. Tenants living in a property under receivership should be aware that the receiver remains in place—and continues to be accountable to the court—until the housing conditions that prompted the appointment have been genuinely corrected and all related costs resolved. Tenants who have concerns about whether conditions have truly been remedied or whether a discharge is appropriate may contact the local code enforcement agency, which retains its lien rights even if the receiver is discharged early, or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with Missouri housing law.
