§ 59-19-9. Appeal of assessment to circuit court.
 

Should the owner of the land, or other person claiming compensation or damages, be not satisfied with the verdict of the jury, such person may appeal from the order of the board of supervisors confirming the same, within ten days after such order, to the circuit court; and the court may review the proceedings as to any matter of law and may award a trial de novo as to the amount of damages. If the order of the board confirming the finding of the jury be reversed on a question of law, the cause shall be remanded to the board for a new writ to be issued for the assessment of damages; or such other order shall be made by the circuit court as shall be proper.
