Section 39-30-05 - Civil proceedings and remedies1. The attorney general, any state's attorney, or any aggrieved person may institute civil proceedings against any person in any court of competent jurisdiction seeking relief from conduct constituting a violation of any provision of this chapter. If the plaintiff in such a proceeding proves the alleged violation, or its threat, by a preponderance of the evidence, any court of competent jurisdiction after due provision for the rights of innocent persons, shall grant relief by entering any appropriate order or judgment, including: a. Ordering any defendant to be divested of any interest in any property;b. Imposing reasonable restrictions upon the future activities or investments of any defendant, including prohibiting any defendant from engaging in the same type of endeavor as the defendant was engaged in previously;c. Ordering the suspension or revocation of a license, permit, or prior approval granted by any public agency or any other public authority;d. Ordering the surrender of the charter of a corporation organized under the laws of the state or the revocation of a certificate authorizing a foreign corporation to conduct business within the state upon finding that the board of directors or a managerial agent acting on behalf of the corporation, in conducting the affairs of the corporation, has authorized or engaged in conduct made unlawful by this chapter and that, for the prevention of future criminal conduct, the public interest requires the charter of the corporation be surrendered and the corporation dissolved or the certificate revoked; ore. Ordering the surrender of the certificate of organization of a limited liability company organized under the laws of the state or the revocation of a certificate authorizing a foreign limited liability company to conduct business within the state upon finding that the board of governors or a managerial agent acting on behalf of the limited liability company, in conducting the affairs of the limited liability company, has authorized or engaged in conduct made unlawful by this chapter and that, for the prevention of future criminal conduct, the public interest requires that the certificate of organization of the limited liability company be surrendered and the limited liability company dissolved or the certificate revoked.2. In a proceeding under this section, injunctive relief must be granted in conformity with the principles that govern the granting of relief from injury or threatened injury in other cases, but no showing of special or irreparable injury must be made. Pending final determination of a proceeding under this section, a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction may be issued upon a showing of immediate danger of significant injury, including the possibility that any judgment for money damages might be difficult to execute, and, in a proceeding initiated by an aggrieved person, upon the execution of proper bond against injury for an injunction improvidently granted.3. Any person injured, directly or indirectly, by conduct constituting a violation by any person of section 39-30-02, in addition to any other relief, has a cause of action for threefold the actual damages sustained by the person.4. A final judgment or decree rendered against the defendant in any civil or criminal proceeding estops the defendant in any subsequent civil action or proceeding brought by any person as to all matters to which the judgment or decree would be an estoppel between the parties to the civil or criminal proceeding.5. Notwithstanding any other provision of law providing a shorter period of limitations, a civil action under this section may be commenced at any time within five years after the conduct made unlawful under section 39-30-02 terminates or the cause of action accrues or within any longer statutory period that may be applicable. If any action is brought by a state's attorney to punish, prevent, or restrain any activity made unlawful under section 39-30-02, the running of the period of limitations is suspended during the pendency of such action and for two years following its termination.6. Personal service of any process in any action under this section may be made upon any person outside the state if the person has engaged in any conduct constituting a violation of section 39-30-02 in this state. The person is deemed to have thereby submitted to the jurisdiction of the courts of this state for the purposes of this provision.7. Obtaining any civil remedy under this section does not preclude obtaining any other civil or criminal remedy under either this chapter or any other provision of law. Civil remedies under this section are supplemental and not mutually exclusive.
