1. Whenever the Commissioner has
reasonable cause to believe that any person is violating or is threatening to
or intends to violate any provision of this chapter, the Commissioner may, in
addition to all actions provided for in this chapter and without prejudice
thereto, enter an order requiring the person to desist or to refrain from such
violation.
2. The Attorney General or the
Commissioner may bring an action to enjoin a person from engaging in or
continuing a violation or from doing any act or acts in furtherance thereof. In
any such action, an order or judgment may be entered awarding a preliminary or
final injunction as may be deemed proper.
3. In addition to all other means provided
by law for the enforcement of a restraining order or injunction, the court in
which an action is brought may impound, and appoint a receiver for, the
property and business of the defendant, including books, papers, documents and
records pertaining thereto, or so much thereof as a court may deem reasonably
necessary to prevent violations of this chapter through or by means of the use
of property and business, whether such books, papers, documents and records are
in the possession of the defendant, a registered agent acting on behalf of the
defendant or any other person. A receiver, when appointed and qualified, has
such powers and duties as to custody, collection, administration, winding up
and liquidation of such property and business as may from time to time be
conferred upon the receiver by the court.
4. If a receiver is appointed pursuant to
subsection 3, such receiver shall remit to the owners, members or shareholders
of the retail trust company any amount of equity and capital of the retail trust
company remaining after discharge of the liabilities and payment of the normal,
prudent and reasonable expenses of the receivership.
