Whenever there shall be a violation
  of this section, an application may be made by the attorney  general  in
  the  name  of  the people of the state of New York to a court or justice
  having jurisdiction to issue an  injunction,  and  upon  notice  to  the
  defendant  of  not  less  than  five  days,  to  enjoin and restrain the
  continuance  of  such  violations;  and  if  it  shall  appear  to   the
  satisfaction  of  the  court or justice that the defendant has, in fact,
  violated this section, an injunction may be  issued  by  such  court  or
  justice,  enjoining  and  restraining  any  further  violation,  without
  requiring proof that any person has, in fact, been  injured  or  damaged
  thereby.  In  any  such  proceeding the court may make allowances to the
  attorney general as provided  in  section  eighty-three  hundred  three,
  subdivision  six  of  the  civil  practice  law  and  rules,  and direct
  restitution. In connection  with  any  such  proposed  application,  the
  attorney general is authorized to take proof and make a determination of
  the  relevant  facts and to issue subpoenas in accordance with the civil
  practice law and rules.
