Restraint of Prohibited Acts

Restraint of Prohibited Acts. (a) Whenever the Attorney General has reason to believe that any person is using, has used, or is about to use any method, act or practice declared in 4 CMC § 5105 to be unlawful, and that proceedings would be in the public interest, the Attorney General may bring a civil action in the name of the Commonwealth against the person to restrain by temporary or permanent injunction the use of that method, act or practice. The notice must state generally the relief sought and must be served at least three days before the hearing of the action. The action may be brought in the Commonwealth Superior Court. The court may issue temporary or permanent injunctions to restrain and prevent violations of this article, and such injunctions shall be issued without bond. (b) The court may make such additional orders or judgments, including the appointment of a receiver, as may be necessary to prevent the use or employment by any person of any practice which constitutes unfair competition, or as may be necessary to restore to any person in interest any money or property, real or personal, which may have been acquired by means of any practice in this article declared to be unlawful.
