If someone is violating, or about to violate, this chapter, the government can sue to stop them. The lawsuit goes to the appropriate U.S. district court. If the case is proven, the court must grant an injunction without requiring a bond.

Whenever it appears to the Secretary that someone has violated, is violating, or is about to violate this chapter (or a rule or order under it), a civil lawsuit can be filed, following the procedure in section 7192(c), in the appropriate U.S. district court, to stop those acts. If the case is proven, the court must grant an injunction, an order requiring or forbidding certain acts, without needing a bond, and this can include temporary relief while the case is pending.
