Upon the appearance of the\nparties, or upon due proof of service of the notice and copy of the\naccount, the county judge shall examine into the matter and hear the\nproofs and allegations presented by the parties, and decide by order\nwhether or not the account, or any and what portion thereof, ought\njustly to be charged upon the district, with costs and disbursements to\nsuch officer.\n  2. Such costs and disbursements shall not exceed the sum of thirty\ndollars, and the decision of the county judge shall be final; but no\nportion of such account shall be so ordered to be paid which shall\nappear to such judge to have arisen from the wilful neglect or\nmisconduct of the claimant.  The account with the oath of the party\nclaiming the same shall be prima facie evidence of the correctness\nthereof.  The county judge may adjourn the hearing from time to time, as\njustice shall seem to require.","path":["Education Law","Title 5. Taxation and Financial Administration","Article 77.
