80-4-427. Injunction. - Montana Statutes

     80-4-427. Injunction. If a person without a license is found to have engaged in any business for which a license is required under parts 5 and 6 of this chapter, the court shall enjoin that person from further business until the person has been licensed. It is not necessary that the department show that an individual has been injured by the actions complained of in order to issue the injunction. The procedure for injunctive relief is the same as any other action for an injunction under Title 27. The department may, in its discretion, file the action in the first judicial district court. The injunction provided by this section is an additional remedy to the criminal penalty provided for in 80-4-428.
