(a) In enforcing this subtitle, the Attorney General may accept an assurance of discontinuance of an act or practice considered in violation of this subtitle from any person engaged in the act or practice. (b) The assurance of discontinuance shall be in writing and filed with and subject to the approval of the court of the county where the alleged violator resides or has his principal place of business. (c) The assurance of discontinuance may not be considered for any purpose as an admission of a violation. However, proof of failure to comply with the assurance of discontinuance is prima facie evidence of a violation of this subtitle.
