§ 56:9-10.

a. The Superior Court shall have jurisdiction to prevent and restrain violations of

this act. The Attorney General may institute proceedings to prevent and restrain violations. In addition to granting prohibitory injunctions and other restraints for a period

and upon terms and conditions necessary to deter the defendant from, and insure against,

the committing of a future violation of this act, the court may grant mandatory injunctions

reasonably necessary to restore and preserve competition in the trade or commerce

affected by the violation. The court may issue temporary restraining orders or prohibitions and the court may

proceed in a summary manner. b. Any person may institute proceedings for injunctive relief, temporary or permanent

in the Superior Court against threatened loss or damage to his property or business

by a violation of this act, when and under the same conditions and principles as injunctive

relief against threatened conduct that will cause loss or damage is granted by courts

of equity, under the rules governing such proceedings, and upon the execution of proper

bond against damages for an injunction improvidently granted and a showing that the

danger of irreparable loss or damage is immediate, a preliminary injunction may issue. If the court issues a permanent injunction, the plaintiff shall be awarded reasonable

attorneys' fees, filing fees and reasonable costs of suit. Reasonable costs of suit may include, but shall not be limited to the expenses of

discovery and document reproduction. c. In addition to injunctive relief authorized pursuant to subsection a of this section,

any person who violates the provisions of this act shall be liable to a penalty of

not more than the greater of $100,000.00 or $500.00 per day for each and every day

of said violation.
