Where the Commission shall make and issue any order, rule, or regulation for the prevention or prohibition of any waste prohibited by this act, or by any order, rule, or regulation of the Commission, authorized by this act, and the same has been or is being violated by any person, firm, trust, association or corporation, the Attorney General of the state, or the Proration Attorney may in the name of the state bring an action in the district court of the county wherein the oil or gas properties have been or are being operated in violation of such order, rule, or regulation of the Commission or wherein any such violation of any order, rule or regulation of the Commission has been or is being committed, for a prohibitory and/or a mandatory injunction, enjoining and prohibiting the offender from further violating the provisions of this act or any such order, rule, or regulation of the Commission and/or commanding and compelling such offender to obey such order, rule, or regulation; and such court is hereby given jurisdiction to grant such injunction or such other relief as may be proper in the premises, and shall have power to grant in any such proceedings temporary restraining orders and/or injunctions, to obtain which no bond shall be required.
Neither a temporary nor permanent injunction granted under the provisions of this section shall be stayed or superseded
on appeal therefrom except upon order of the Supreme Court, and then only upon application therefor, and hearing thereon after reasonable notice to plaintiff. Insofar as permitted and not prohibited by existing statutes, all suits brought under the provisions of this section shall be given, in the hearing and trial thereof, by all courts in which the same are brought and prosecuted, precedence over other actions pending in said courts.
