§ 2805. Appeal; commissioners; hearing on report A party to the cause who feels aggrieved by the final order or decree of the Commission shall have the right to take the cause to the Supreme Court

  • . Such appeal shall be
    taken and the cause entered in the Supreme Court, in the manner and under the law
    and rules of procedure that govern such appeals from the Superior Court, and the Supreme
    Court shall have the same power that it has over appeals from the Superior Court.
    The Supreme Court, if cause is not shown to the contrary, on motion of either party,
    shall appoint three disinterested freeholders, residents of the county where the appeal
    is taken, unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties, to be commissioners, who shall
    appoint a time and place of hearing the matter set forth in the petition and give
    at least six days’ notice to the parties; and, after hearing the parties, the commissioners
    shall report in writing the facts found by them and such other findings as the Court
    may direct. Upon the return of the report, either party may object to its acceptance
    for good cause shown and the Court may set aside the report and order a rehearing;
    but if the Court accepts and establishes the same, the Court may reverse or affirm
    the orders or decrees made by the Public Utility Commission, and may remand the cause
    to the Commission with such mandate as law and equity require; and the Commission
    shall enter an order or decree in accordance with such mandate. (Amended 1959, No. 329 (Adj. Sess.), § 39(b), eff. March 1, 1961; 2023, No. 85 (Adj. Sess.), § 402, eff. July 1, 2024.)
