The board shall be entitled to the services of the attorney general in connection with any of the business of the board. The board shall have the power to administer oaths and take testimony and proofs concerning any matter which may come within its jurisdiction. The attorney general, the prosecuting attorney of any county, the board, or a citizen of a county wherein any person, not herein exempted, shall engage in the practice of architecture or landscape architecture, as herein defined, without first having obtained a certificate of registration, or without first having renewed an expired certificate of registration, so to practice, may, in accordance with the provisions of the laws of this state governing injunctions, maintain an action, in the name of the state of Indiana, to enjoin such person from engaging in the practice of architecture or landscape architecture, as herein defined, until a certificate of registration is secured, or renewed, in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. Any person who has been so enjoined and who violates the injunction shall be punished for contempt of court. The injunction shall not relieve such person so practicing architecture or landscape architecture without a certificate of registration, or without first having renewed an expired certificate of registration, from a criminal prosecution therefor, as is provided by this chapter, but such remedy by injunction shall be in addition to any remedy provided for herein for the criminal prosecution of such offender. In charging any person in a complaint for an injunction, or in an affidavit, information or indictment, with the violation of the provisions of this chapter, by practicing architecture or landscape architecture without a certificate of registration or without having renewed an expired certificate of registration, it shall be sufficient to charge that the person did upon a certain day and in a certain county engage in the practice of architecture or landscape architecture, without having a certificate of registration or without having renewed an expired certificate of registration, to so practice, without averring any further or more particular facts concerning the same. The attorney general and the Indiana professional licensing agency may use the registered architects and registered landscape architects investigative fund established by section 32 of this chapter to hire investigators and other employees to enforce the provisions of this article and to investigate and prosecute violations of this article.
