Section 123-E. Relief by the court  


Latest version.
  • 1. The court may grant equitable or
      declaratory relief, or both, including, but not  limited  to:  enjoining
      the  activity  complained  of;  restitution to the state of those public
      funds disbursed or public property alienated;  in  the  case  of  public
      property  wrongfully  alienated,  compelling  payment of the full market
      value; a declaration that  a  proposed  disbursement  or  alienation  of
      property  would  be illegal; and such other and further relief as to the
      court may seem just and proper.
        2. The court, at the  commencement  of  an  action  pursuant  to  this
      article,  or  at  any  time  subsequent  thereto  and  prior to entry of
      judgment, upon application by the plaintiff or the attorney  general  on
      behalf  of  the  people of the state, may grant a preliminary injunction
      and impose such terms and conditions as may be necessary to restrain the
      defendant if he or she threatens to commit or is committing  an  act  or
      acts which, if committed or continued during the pendency of the action,
      would  be  detrimental  to  the public interest. A temporary restraining
      order may be granted pending a  hearing  for  a  preliminary  injunction
      notwithstanding  the  requirements of section six thousand three hundred
      thirteen of the civil practice law and  rules,  where  it  appears  that
      immediate and irreparable injury, loss, or damage will result unless the
      defendant is restrained before a hearing can be had.
