§1244. Injunction; penalty; attorney fees; costs

A. The board may seek in any court of competent jurisdiction a writ of injunction enjoining any person from practicing or assisting in the practice of pharmacy, until such person obtains the necessary license, registration, certificate, or permit under the provisions of this Chapter. This injunction shall not be subject to being released upon bond.

B. In the suit for an injunction, the board may demand of the defendant a penalty of not more than five thousand dollars, as well as reasonable attorney fees and the costs of court. This judgment for penalty, attorney fees, and costs may be rendered in the same judgment in which the injunction is made absolute.

C. The trial of the proceeding by injunction shall be summary and by the judge without a jury.

D. Nothing herein shall be construed as barring criminal prosecutions for violations of this Chapter.
