Section 648.35 - Enforcement procedure(1) INJUNCTIONS AND RESTRAINING ORDERS. The commissioner may commence an action in circuit court in the name of the state to restrain by temporary or permanent injunction or by temporary restraining order any violation of this chapter, any rule promulgated under this chapter, or any order issued under s. 648.10(2). The commissioner need not show irreparable harm or lack of an adequate remedy at law in an action commenced under this subsection.(2) ORDERS. The commissioner shall issue any orders under the procedures described in s. 601.63 and shall hold any hearings under the procedures described in s. 601.62.(3) COMPULSIVE FORFEITURES. If a person does not comply with an order issued under s. 648.10(2) within 2 weeks after the commissioner has given the care management organization notice of the commissioner's intention to proceed under this subsection, the commissioner may commence an action for a forfeiture in such sum as the court considers just, but not exceeding $5,000 for each day that the violation continues after the commencement of the action until judgment is rendered. No forfeiture may be imposed under this subsection if at the time the action was commenced the care management organization was in compliance with the order, nor for any violation of an order occurring while any proceeding for judicial review of the order was pending, unless the court in which the proceeding was pending certifies that the claim of invalidity or nonapplicability of the order was frivolous or a sham. If after judgment is rendered the care management organization does not comply with the order, the commissioner may commence a new action for a forfeiture and may continue commencing actions until the person complies. The proceeds of all actions under this subsection, after deduction of the expenses of collection, shall be paid into the common school fund of the state.(4) FORFEITURES AND CIVIL PENALTIES. (a)Restitutionary forfeiture. Whoever violates an order issued under s. 648.10(2) that is effective under s. 601.63, any section of this chapter, or any rule relating to this chapter shall forfeit to the state twice the amount of any profit gained from the violation, in addition to any other forfeiture or penalty imposed.(b)Forfeiture for violation of order. Whoever violates an order issued under s. 648.10(2) that is effective under s. 601.63 shall forfeit to the state not more than $1,000 for each violation. Each day that the violation continues is a separate offense.(c)Forfeiture for violation of statute or rule. Whoever violates, intentionally aids in violating, or knowingly permits a person over whom he or she has authority to violate a section of this chapter or a rule promulgated under this chapter shall forfeit to the state not more than $1,000 for each violation. If the section or rule violated imposes a duty to make a report to the commissioner, each week of delay in complying with the duty is a new violation.(d)Procedure. The commissioner may order any person to pay a forfeiture imposed under this subsection, which shall be paid into the common school fund. If the order is issued without a hearing, the affected person may demand a hearing through procedures described under s. 601.62(3) (a). If the person fails to request a hearing, the order is conclusive as to the person's liability. The scope of review for forfeitures ordered is that specified under s. 227.57. The commissioner may cause an action to be commenced to recover the forfeiture. Before an action is commenced, the commissioner may compromise the forfeiture.(5) CRIMINAL PENALTY. Whoever intentionally violates or intentionally permits any person over whom he or she has authority to violate or intentionally aids any person in violating any section of this chapter, any rule promulgated to administer this chapter, or any order issued under s. 648.10(2) that is effective under s. 601.63 is guilty of a Class I felony, unless a specific penalty is provided elsewhere in the statutes. Intent has the meaning expressed under s. 939.23.
