Section § 17096
This law states that in a legal case to stop someone from doing something illegal (called an injunction), it's enough to show the unlawful intent of the person, company, or firm they represent. You don’t need to prove the individual's personal intent if they are acting on behalf of another entity with bad intentions.
In any injunction proceeding against any person as officer, director or agent, it is sufficient to allege and prove the unlawful intent of the person, firm or corporation for which he acts.
