To further enforce the collection of the fees due under this article, independent
of and in addition to the enforcement of the criminal penalties herein provided for
under this section, the department of finance and/or the department of law are hereby
vested with authority, on motion in a court of competent jurisdiction, to invoke and
include in a rule or summary proceeding against a riverboat operator and/or the person
responsible for remittance of the fee requiring them to show cause in not less than
two nor more than ten days after service thereof, exclusive of holidays, which matter
may be tried out of term and in chambers, and shall always be tried by preference,
why such riverboat operator should not be enjoined and restrained from further pursuit
of the business. In case such rule is made absolute, the order thereon rendered shall
be considered a judgment in favor of the city, prohibiting, restraining and enjoining
such riverboat operator from further pursuit of the business until such time as he
has paid the delinquent fee, penalties, interest, attorney's fees and costs due, and
every violation of the injunction shall be considered as a contempt of court and punishable
as such according to law.
