(a) If a securities depository fails to comply with a final order and has not secured a court order restraining the enforcement of the final order, the commissioner may revoke the license of the securities depository or may institute proceedings under subdivision (b) to enforce the final order.
(b) Whenever it appears to the commissioner that any person has engaged or is about to engage in any act or practice constituting a violation of any provision of this law or any rule or order under this law, the commissioner may in the commissioner’s discretion bring an action in the superior court to enjoin the acts or practices or to enforce compliance with this law or any rule or order under this law. Upon a proper showing, a permanent or preliminary injunction, restraining order, or writ of mandate shall be granted and a receiver or conservator may be appointed for the defendant or the defendant’s assets.
