The Attorney General enforces the laws at the request of a state agency or state officer, or defends the officers, or agency, etc. when requested by their client. Who is the client? Not the consumer. Its the state agency, the governor, agency heads, officers, etc. The AG does not have authority to just jump in there and start filing suits and charging people with crimes. Not going to happen as a general rule. >> Here is Missouri the AG was on TV saying how they are going after any gas stations that raised prices over $2.50 per gallon. They had cited 39 stations so far and were going to go after those that raised prices over $2.00 a gallon next. By mid day yesterday most stations has lowered their pricing back and were offering refunds to those that overpaid. They seemed to have forgotten what they were doing was illegal.
