Are there any remedies available for a violation of the antitrust laws?

Yes, there are remedies available for a violation of the antitrust laws in North Dakota. The North Dakota Antitrust Act provides for both civil and criminal penalties for any violations of the law. In a civil action, an individual or company can file a complaint in a court of law. If a violation is found to have occurred, the court can award monetary damages to the plaintiff to compensate them for any harm or losses. The court may also order an injunction to forbid the defendant from continuing the anti-competitive practices. In criminal proceedings, the North Dakota Attorney General may bring a case against the offending business. If the court finds the business has violated the law, they can be hit with hefty fines and even jail time for the responsible parties. In either case, if a company is found to be in violation of the North Dakota Antitrust Act, they will be held liable and accountable for any harm or losses caused by the violation. This serves as a powerful deterrent to unfair competition in the state of North Dakota.
