§ 1331.11.

Courts of common pleas are invested with jurisdiction to restrain and enjoin violators

of sections 1331.01 to 1331.14 of the Revised Code .  For a violation of such sections, the attorney general, or the prosecuting attorney

of the proper county, shall institute proper proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction

in any county in which there is proper venue. When such suit is instituted by the attorney general in quo warranto, he may begin

the same in the supreme court of the state, or the court of appeals of Franklin county.  When such suit is instituted by the attorney general to restrain and enjoin a violation

of sections 1331.01 to 1331.14 of the Revised Code , he may begin the same in the court of common pleas of Franklin county.  Such proceedings to restrain and enjoin such violation shall be by way of complaint

setting forth the case, and praying that such violation be enjoined or otherwise prohibited. Upon the filing of such complaint, and before final decree, the court may make such

temporary restraining order or prohibition as is just in the premises.  In any action or proceeding in quo warranto by the attorney general or a prosecuting

attorney against a corporation, the court in which such action or proceeding is pending

may, ancillary to such action or proceeding, restrain or enjoin the corporation and

its officers and agents from continuing or committing during the pendency of the action

the alleged act by reason of which the action is brought. When, in a proceeding in quo warranto by the attorney general or any prosecuting attorney,

any Ohio corporation is, on final hearing, found guilty of violating such sections,

the court may declare a forfeiture of all its rights, privileges, and franchises to

the state and may order the corporation dissolved and appoint a trustee to wind up

its affairs, as is provided in other cases in quo warranto.
