§ 511. Joint or consolidated trials. (A) In proceedings under
subdivision (A) of section five hundred one, two or more acquisition
claims arising from the same project may, at the discretion of the
court, be heard and determined by the court in one trial or proceeding.
When some, but not all claims arising from a single project have been
filed, and the court shall determine that a joint or consolidated trial
is desirable, the court, upon motion of any party, may order that any
condemnee who has not yet done so, file a claim in accordance with the
provisions of this act within one hundred twenty days after service of a
copy of the order. If a condemnee fails to file a claim within the one
hundred twenty day period, his claim shall thereafter be tried upon the
proof presented. Nothing in this section shall extend the period for
filing a claim as provided within section five hundred three of this
law.
(B) In proceedings under subdivision (B) of section five hundred one
the court may conduct all trials relating to a project as a single
proceeding in one or more parts, or may consolidate and order that a
joint trial be had of the claims of any parties filing separate notices
of appearance as the orderly administration of justice shall require.
