Title 1 - Care and Protection of Children
391 - Violation; Injunction.

§ 391. Violation; injunction. Violations of any provision of this
title may be prohibited by injunction. Whenever the commissioner has
reason to believe that any provision of this title is being violated, or
is about to be violated, he may maintain and prosecute, in the name of
the people of this state, an action in the supreme court for the purpose
of obtaining an injunction restraining such violation.

Notwithstanding any limitation of the civil practice law and rules,
such court may, on motion and affidavit, and upon proof that such
violation is one which reasonably may result in injury to any person,
whether or not such person is a party to such action, grant a
preliminary injunction or interlocutory injunction upon such terms as
may be just. No security on the part of the people of this state shall
be required.
