The prosecuting attorney in a county in which the violation occurs may bring an action under this section to enjoin a violation of IC 35-45-6-2 (corrupt business influence). An action under this section may be brought in any circuit or superior court in a county in which the violation occurs. If the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that a violation of IC 35-45-6-2 has occurred, the court may:

1. (1) order a defendant to divest the defendant of any interest in any enterprise or property;
2. (2) impose reasonable restrictions upon the future activities or investments of a defendant, including prohibiting a defendant from engaging in the same type of endeavor as the enterprise in which the defendant was engaged in violation of IC 35-45-6-2 ;
3. (3) order the dissolution or reorganization of any enterprise;
4. (4) order the suspension or revocation of a license, permit, or prior approval granted to any enterprise by any agency of the state;

5. (5) order the forfeiture of the charter of a corporation organized under the laws of Indiana, or the revocation of a certificate authorizing a foreign corporation to conduct business within the state, upon finding that:

   1. (A) the board of directors or a managerial agent acting on behalf of the corporation, in conducting the affairs of the corporation, has authorized or engaged in conduct in violation of IC 35-45-6-2 ; and
   2. (B) for the prevention of future criminal activity, the public interest requires the charter of the corporation be forfeited and the corporation dissolved or the certificate revoked; and

6. (6) make any other order or judgment that the court considers appropriate.

   In any order or judgment made by the court under this section, the judge shall make due provision for the rights of innocent persons, including a person having any rights, title, or interest of record in any of the property.
