N.D. Cent. Code § 61-24-17: Appeal from orders of district board

An appeal from an order of the board of directors of the conservancy district denying a petition for exclusion may be taken to the district court of the petitioning county. The appeal must be taken in accordance with the procedure provided in section 28-34-01. The appeal must be docketed as any cause pending in district court is docketed and thereupon the court shall hear and determine the cause without a jury. An appeal to the supreme court may be taken by the petitioning county or by the conservancy district, from any judgment entered in district court, and from any order of the court if an appeal would lie from such order if entered by the court in a civil action.
