The director of the division, as petitioner, may file in the district court of the city and county of Denver, or of any county in which the place of employment or any part thereof is situated, a verified petition against any employers or employees, or both, as respondents, and setting forth any violation or threatened or attempted violation of any provisions of section 8-1-125 or 8-1-126, and, thereupon, without bond and without notice, the district court shall issue its mandatory writ enjoining the alleged violations, or attempted or threatened violations of this article, and ordering and requiring the respondents to maintain all the conditions of employment in status quo and without change until after the dispute or controversy has been investigated and heard by the director and the final findings, decision, order, or award of the director made and entered. Any respondent may move the court to dissolve the mandatory writ as to that respondent, and, upon at least five days' notice to the director, the motion shall be set down for hearing, but the mandatory writ shall not be dissolved without proof of full compliance by the respondent with all the provisions of this article and orders of the director and that the continuance in effect of the mandatory writ is causing or will cause the respondent great and irreparable injury. The court may require such security of the respondent as the court determines adequate to enforce obedience to the provisions of this article on the part of the respondent before the mandatory writ is dissolved.
