54:10A-20. Injunctive relief as one of remedies for collection
In addition to other remedies for the collection of the tax imposed by this chapter, the Attorney-General may of his own motion or upon the request of the commissioner, whenever any tax due under this chapter shall have remained in arrears for a period of three months after the tax shall have become payable, bring an action in the Superior Court in the name of the State, against such corporation for injunctive relief to restrain it from the exercise of any franchise, or the transaction of any business within this State until the payment of such tax and penalties and interest due thereon, and the costs of such application, to be fixed by the court. The court may proceed in the action in a summary manner or otherwise and may grant the injunctive relief, if a proper case appear. Upon the granting and service of the order or judgment giving injunctive relief, it shall not be lawful for such company thereafter to exercise any franchise or transact any business in this State until such injunction be dissolved.
