New Jersey § 13:1i-5

§ 13:1i-5.

If any person violates any of the provisions of this act or any rule, regulation or

order promulgated pursuant to the provisions of this act, the department may institute

an action in a court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive relief to prohibit and

prevent such violation or violations and the said court may proceed in the action

in a summary manner. Any person who violates any of the provisions of this act or any rule, regulation

or order promulgated pursuant to this act shall be liable to a penalty of not more

than $3,000.00 for each offense to be collected in a summary proceeding under the

Penalty Enforcement Law ( N.J.S. 2A:58-1 et seq. ), or in any case before a court of competent jurisdiction wherein injunctive relief

has been requested. The Superior Court shall have jurisdiction to enforce said Penalty Enforcement Law. If the violation is of a continuing nature, each day during which it continues shall

constitute an additional, separate and distinct offense. The department is hereby authorized and empowered to compromise and settle any claim

for a penalty under this section in such amount in the discretion of the department

as may appear appropriate and equitable under all of the circumstances.
