in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

If the Secretary believes someone is violating or about to violate the rules, a court can stop them. The court must have jurisdiction over that person to issue the order. The Attorney General directs these court proceedings.

This section lets the government stop violations of this chapter before or while they happen, using a court order called an injunction. It applies whenever the Secretary judges that a person has violated, or is about to violate, any provision of this chapter, or any regulation, order, or license term issued under it. When that happens, any district court that has jurisdiction over that person may issue an injunction — a court order — to stop the act or practice. The proceedings to get that court order are carried out under the direction of the Attorney General of the United States.
