Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-280f

Current with legislation from the 2024 Regular and Special Sessions.
Section 16-280f - Injunction. Enforcement of standards
(a) The Superior Court shall have jurisdiction to restrain violations of sections 16-280a to 16-280 e, inclusive, or to enforce standards established under the federal act upon petition of the appropriate state's attorney, upon complaint of the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority. Whenever practicable, the authority shall give notice to any person against whom an action for injunctive relief is contemplated and afford him an opportunity to present his views; and, except in the case of a knowing and wilful violation, the authority shall afford him reasonable opportunity to achieve compliance. However, the failure to give such notice and afford such opportunity shall not preclude the granting of appropriate relief.
(b) In any proceeding for criminal contempt for violation of an injunction or restraining order issued under this section, which violation also constitutes a violation of the federal act, trial shall be by the court.
(c) Actions under subsection (a) of this section may be brought in the judicial district wherein any act or transaction constituting the violation occurred, or in the judicial district wherein the defendant is found or is an inhabitant or transacts business.
