§ 476-b. Injunction to restrain defendant from unlawful practice of

the law. In a civil action brought as prescribed in section four hundred

seventy-six-a of this article, the final judgment in favor of the

plaintiff shall perpetually restrain the defendant from the commission

or continuance of the act complained of. A temporary restraining order

to restrain the commission or continuance thereof may be granted upon

proof, by affidavit, that the defendant has violated any of the

provisions of such section. The provisions of statute or rule relating

generally to injunctions as provisional remedies in actions apply to

such a temporary restraining order and the proceedings thereupon, except

that the plaintiff shall not be required to file any undertaking before

the issuance of such temporary restraining order, shall not be liable

for costs and shall not be liable for damages sustained by reason of the

restraining order in cases where judgment is rendered in favor of the

person, firm or corporation sought to be enjoined.
