Text — 2026 Florida Statutes
(1) If the office determines that a violation of the financial institutions codes or a violation of a formal enforcement action has occurred or is threatened or impending, the circuit court has jurisdiction to hear a complaint filed by the office and, upon proper showing, to issue an injunction restraining such violation or granting other appropriate relief. Upon proper showing, the circuit court may also issue an injunction restraining any conduct or other act in order to protect the interests of depositors, members, creditors, or stockholders of a financial institution or the interests of the public in the safety and soundness of the financial institution system in this state and the proper conduct of fiduciary functions.

(a) With respect to a financial institution, a supervisory action subject to enforcement pursuant to s. 655.033, s. 655.037, or s. 655.041 which directs the financial institution to take corrective action to address violations of law or safety and soundness deficiencies.
