Sec. 14. Within twenty (20) days after the final action of the board, the remonstrator may file in the office of the clerk of the circuit court a copy of the order of the board, not including, unless he so desires, the maps, plans and specifications, and his remonstrance to them, together with his bond conditioned to pay the cost of the appeal if it is determined against him. All appeals shall be consolidated and heard as one (1) cause of action by the court, and the burden of proof is upon the remonstrators. The cause shall be tried and determined summarily by the court without the intervention of a jury, as other civil causes, and shall be given precedence over other matters pending in the court. Upon the trial of the cause, the court shall hear evidence upon the remonstrances and shall confirm the final action of the board on the resolution, or sustain the remonstrance or remonstrances to them, and the court may remand the resolution for further proceedings. If the resolution is confirmed the judgment of the court is conclusive upon all parties, and no appeal lies from the judgment.
