A. In addition to all other available remedies, if the board has any reason to believe that a person has violated this chapter or a board rule, the board through the attorney general or the county attorney may apply to the superior court in Maricopa county for an injunction restraining that person from engaging in the violation. It is not necessary for the board to show damage or injury. It is sufficient for the board to charge that the respondent on a certain day in a named county committed the violation.

Terms Used In Arizona Laws 32-2940

  • Board: means the board of homeopathic and integrated medicine examiners. See Arizona Laws 32-2901

  • Injunction: An order of the court prohibiting (or compelling) the performance of a specific act to prevent irreparable damage or injury.
  • Person: includes a corporation, company, partnership, firm, association or society, as well as a natural person. See Arizona Laws 1-215

C. The board may serve the defendant in any county of this state where the defendant is found.
