Section 23064 Of Article 3. Civil Damages From California Financial Code >> Division 10. >> Chapter 3. >> Article 3.
23064
. Any person who is injured by any violation of this division
may bring an action for the recovery of damages, an equity proceeding
to restrain and enjoin those violations, or both. The amount awarded
may be up to three times the damages actually incurred, but in no
event less than the amount paid by the aggrieved consumer to a person
subject to this section. If the plaintiff prevails, the plaintiff
shall be awarded reasonable attorney's fees and costs. If a court
determines by clear and convincing evidence that a breach or
violation was willful, the court, in its discretion, may award
punitive damages in addition to the amounts set forth above. Upon
application, the court may also grant any equitable relief that it
deems proper, including, but not limited to, a claim for restitution
and disgorgement.
