2009 California Labor Code - Section 1704-1704.3 :: Article 4. Remedies

1704.  A person, including, an owner, officer, director, agent, or
employee of a talent service, who willfully violates any provision of
this chapter is guilty of a misdemeanor. Each violation is
punishable by imprisonment in a county jail for not more than one
year, by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or by
both that fine and imprisonment. However, payment of restitution to
an artist shall take precedence over the payment of a fine.

1704.1.  The Attorney General, a district attorney, or a city
attorney may institute an action for a violation of this chapter,
including an action to restrain and enjoin a violation.

1704.2.  A person who is injured by a violation of this chapter or
by the breach of a contract subject to this chapter may bring an
action for recovery of damages or to restrain and enjoin a violation,
or both. The court shall award to a plaintiff who prevails in an
action under this chapter reasonable attorney's fees and costs. The
amount awarded for damages for a violation of this chapter shall be
not less than three times the amount paid by the artist, or on behalf
of the artist, to the talent service or the advance-fee talent
representation service.

1704.3.  The Labor Commissioner shall use the proceeds of a bond or
deposit posted by a person pursuant to this chapter to satisfy a
judgment or restitution order resulting from the person's violation
of a provision of this chapter, if the person fails to pay all
amounts required by the judgment or restitution order.
