Mo. Rev. Stat. § 444.788: Civil action.

In the event the commission determines that any provisions of sections 444.760 to 444.790, rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, permits issued, conditions of the bond, or any final order or determination made by the commission or the director is being violated, the commission may, either after judicial review or simultaneously with judicial review, cause to have instituted a civil action, either in the county where the violation occurs or in Cole County, for injunctive relief, for collection of the civil penalty and for forfeiture of bond. The attorney general shall bring such action, at the request of the commission, in the name of the state of Missouri.
