The institution of one civil action under the provisions of this division and the pendency thereof shall not be asserted as a defense by pleading or motion to the institution of a subsequent civil action under this division for the collection of license or taxes becoming due after the institution of such prior civil action even though a bond for dissolution of the injunction is given and the respondent continues to operate.
