18-1-405. Court to appoint surveyor; filing of surveyor's report; action upon report; appeal.
(a) Upon hearing the matter as provided by W.S. 18-1-404 and if the court is satisfied that all proceedings have been made pursuant to the provisions of W.S. 18-1-401 through 18-1-404 the court shall appoint a licensed surveyor who is not a resident of either interested county to survey the disputed boundary line. The court shall specify the time in which the survey is to be made.
(b) The surveyor shall take and subscribe an oath to faithfully and impartially make a survey, and after making the survey shall make a report in triplicate, one (1) copy to be filed with the court and the others to be filed with the county clerks of each county. The report will be signed and sworn to by the surveyor and will contain maps showing the location of the boundary line in the same manner as provided by W.S. 18-1-402.
(c) When the report has been filed with the court, the boundary line is fixed and designated as shown in the report, unless the court sets aside the survey and report for being insufficient or indefinite upon the application of either county if made within sixty (60) days after the report has been filed in the court.
(d) Any order of the court concerning the boundary line may be appealed to the supreme court, but the boundary line is conclusive until set aside. In the event the order is set aside, another surveyor may be appointed as provided by this section.
