In plain language

Thirty nine words that turn a rules breach into a criminal charge. Purposefully or knowingly violating any provision of Title 11A or Title 4A, or an order of the Chairperson or the Commission, is a crime of the fourth degree, and conspiring to do so carries the same grade. State of mind is what marks this off from the administrative route: the Commission's enforcement powers under 4A:10-2.1 operate on evidence of a violation, with no showing of purpose or knowledge needed. Nothing in the section names a penalty, a procedure or a prosecuting body, and the Commission's own power there stops at recommending prosecution.
