It shall be the duty of the sheriff of the county to require every such concern or organization doing business in his county to submit to him for inspection a valid certificate of compliance issued by the secretary of state as provided by Section 75-75-17. It shall be unlawful for any such concern or organization to do business in any county of this state until it has submitted to the sheriff of the county for inspection its valid certificate of compliance.

Any person or persons or firm or corporation violating any of the provisions of Section 75-75-17 shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and on conviction thereof shall be fined not more than five hundred dollars ($500.00), or imprisoned in the county jail not exceeding six (6) months, or by both such fine and imprisonment in the discretion of the court.

Whenever any person or persons or firm or corporation operates or attempts to operate in violation of Section 75-75-17, the attorney general of the state, the district attorney of the district, the county attorney, or any person who is a citizen of the county, may bring an action in equity in the name of the State of Mississippi, upon the relation of such attorney general, district attorney, or county attorney, or person to abate such operation and to enjoin any person or persons or firm or corporation operating the same from further operation thereof. Orders and injunctions, both temporary and permanent, may be issued and the same procedure shall be followed therein in the same manner as the law relating to nuisances.
