13-1228e. Same; delivery of transcript to court; review by district court.
The secretary of the board upon receipt of the copy of the application for review shall transmit to the clerk of the court a certified transcript of all pleadings, applications, proceedings and decisions of the board and of the evidence heard by the board on the public hearings of the matter or cause. The parties, with the consent and approval of the board, may stipulate in writing that only certain portions of the record be transcribed.

The district court shall review the transcript of the public hearings for the purpose of determining the lawfulness or reasonableness of the board's decision. The court shall have the power to vacate or set aside the board's decision if it determines the findings of the board do not substantiate the reasonableness of the proposed rate increase or that the findings are contrary to law.

After the transcript is filed with the clerk of the court, the court shall fix a date for the filing of briefs and for the hearing of the cause. The review proceedings shall have precedence over all other matters in the district court in which it is pending and shall be heard by the court without a jury. Except as provided in this section, the procedure for the review shall be the same as in other civil actions.
