Miss. Code Ann. § 53-1-43

(a) Whenever it shall appear that any person is violating or threatening to violate any statute of this state with respect to the conservation of oil and gas, or any provision of Sections 53-1-1 through 53-1-47 , inclusive, and Sections 53-3-1 through 53-3-21 , inclusive, or any rule, regulation or order made by the board thereunder, and fails or refuses to cease such violation or threats of violation on notice so to do, by the board or supervisor, the board may bring suit against such person in the chancery court in the county of the residence of the defendant, or in the county of the residence of any defendant, if there be more than one (1) defendant, or in the county where the violation is alleged to have occurred or is threatened, to restrain such person from continuing such violation or from carrying out the threat of violation. In such suit the board may obtain injunctions, prohibitory and mandatory, including temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, as the facts may warrant, including, when appropriate, an injunction restraining any person from moving or disposing of any illegal oil, illegal gas, illegal condensate, or illegal product.

(b) In the event the board should fail to bring suit within ten (10) days to enjoin any actual or threatened violation of any statute of this state with respect to the conservation of oil and gas, or of any provision of Sections 53-1-1 through 53-1-47 , inclusive, and Sections 53-3-1 through 53-3-21 , inclusive, or of any rule, regulation or order made thereunder, then any person or party in interest adversely affected by such violation, and who has notified the board in writing of such violation, or threat thereof, and has requested the board to sue, may, to prevent any or further violation, bring suit for that purpose in the chancery court of any county in which the board could have brought suit, and the board shall be made a party to such suit.

(c) The board may utilize the provisions of Section 85-7-132, Mississippi Code of 1972 , in prosecuting violations of Sections 53-1-1 through 53-1-47 and Sections 53-3-1 through 53-3-21 , or any rule, regulation or order made by the board thereunder.
