The Attorney General or county attorney may enforce the provisions of KRS
365.650 to 365.695 by civil action for injunctive relief in the Circuit Court of his
county. In the action to obtain the injunction, it shall be sufficient to allege and
prove that a violation of KRS 365.650 to 365.695 has occurred or is about to occur,
and it shall not be necessary to allege or prove that any person has been damaged or
sustained any loss as a result of any violation of KRS 365.650 to 365.695.
When the provisions of KRS 365.650 to 365.695 are enforced through civil action,
the Attorney General or county attorney may ask for and the court may assess a civil
penalty for the benefit of the Commonwealth, not to exceed the sum of two
thousand dollars ($2,000). The penalty shall be in lieu of all penalties set forth in
KRS 365.990(8).
Nothing in KRS 365.650 to 365.695 shall be construed to limit or restrict the
exercise of powers or the performance of duties the Attorney General is authorized
to exercise or perform under any provision of law.
