Section 11-88-72

Appeal from assessments to circuit court - Conduct of trial generally; when costs of appeal and trial adjudged against authority.

The said appeal may be tried on the record without other pleadings and the court shall hear all objections of the property owners to the said assessment and the amount thereof, shall determine whether or not such assessment exceeds the increased value of such property by reason of the special benefits derived from the improvement, and shall render judgment accordingly. Such appeal shall be tried by the judge without a jury, unless a jury trial is demanded at the time of filing appeal, in which event the appeal shall be tried by a jury as provided in common law cases.

In event the court or jury shall not sustain the assessment for the full amount, the costs of appeal and trial in circuit court shall be adjudged against the authority.

(Acts 1973, No. 826, p. 1293, §33.)
