Any person who violates or directs another to violate this act is guilty of a Class C misdemeanor. Moreover, any person injured as a result of any violation or threatened violation of this act is entitled to injunctive relief and certain other damages.
Prosecuting attorneys, circuit attorneys, and the Attorney General are charged with investigating complaints under this act.
