Sec. 3.
The owners or occupants of adjoining lands or structures shall also be entitled to relief in a court of equity by way of injunction or other appropriate equitable relief, to restrain the prosecution of such excavating operations without the taking of such precautions to provide such lateral and subjacent support as are reasonable under the circumstances, and it shall not be necessary in such proceedings to allege or show that there is no adequate remedy at law. Such court of equity shall have jurisdiction in such proceedings to adjudicate all disputes arising in connection with the subject matter thereof.
