§2120.22. Operation without a license; penalty
A. A nurse staffing agency shall not operate without a license issued by the department. Any person, partnership, corporation, unincorporated association, or other legal entity operating such an agency without a license shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be fined no less than two hundred fifty dollars nor more than one thousand dollars. Each day of violation shall constitute a separate offense. It shall be the responsibility of the department to inform the appropriate district attorney of the alleged violation to ensure enforcement.
B. If a person, partnership, corporation, unincorporated association, or other legal entity is operating a nurse staffing agency without a license issued by the department, the department may have the authority to issue an immediate cease and desist order to that person, partnership, corporation, unincorporated association, or other legal entity. Any such agency receiving a cease and desist order from the department shall immediately cease operations until such time that the agency is issued a license by the department.
C. The department shall seek an injunction in the Nineteenth Judicial District Court against any person, partnership, corporation, unincorporated association, or other legal entity operating an agency that receives a cease and desist order from the department in accordance with Subsection B of this Section and that does not cease operations immediately. Any such person, partnership, corporation, unincorporated association, or other legal entity operating an agency against which an injunction is granted shall be liable to the department for attorney fees, costs, and damages.
