Sec. 13.(1) The department may bring an action for injunctive relief in the circuit court for the county in which the person resides or in the circuit court for Ingham County, to enjoin a violation or threatened violation of this act or a rule promulgated under this act. An affidavit of an individual who is personally familiar with the basis of noncompliance must be filed with the action for injunctive relief.

(2) If the department has conducted an investigation that discloses an imminent threat to the public health, safety, or welfare, or the well-being of a child is endangered, the department may obtain an injunction to restrain or prevent a person from acting in a manner that threatens the public health, safety, or welfare, or to compel a person to affirmatively take reasonable corrective action. Before obtaining an injunction as provided by this subsection, the department must obtain an affidavit by a person familiar with the facts set forth in the affidavit, or, if appropriate, based upon an affidavit, that an imminent threat to the public health, safety, or welfare exists or the well-being of a child is endangered. The appropriate department is not required to provide prior warning to the person before obtaining an injunction under this section. The appropriate department is not required to demonstrate an imminent threat to the public health, safety, or welfare or child endangerment if the person is operating a child care organization without a license in violation of the director's final order issued under section 11.  1

(3) If the department is successful in obtaining an injunction as provided in this section, the department is entitled to actual costs and attorney fees for maintaining the action.
