Whenever the district attorney or the Attorney General has reason to believe that the delay caused by complying with the notice requirement of NRS 598.0987 or the requirements of subsection 3 of NRS 598.0963 would cause immediate harm to the public of this state or endanger the public welfare, he or she may immediately institute an action for injunctive relief, including a request for a temporary restraining order, upon proof of specific facts shown by affidavit or by verified complaint or otherwise that such immediate harm will be or is likely to be caused by the delay. The Attorney General shall give written notice of the filing by the Attorney General of such an action to the Commissioner or Director. The Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure pertaining to the issuance of temporary restraining orders govern all actions instituted pursuant to this section.
