     § 518.  Disposition of appeal.
        An appeal shall be disposed as follows:
            (1)  All objections, other than to the amount of the
        award, raised by the appeal shall be determined by the court
        preliminarily.
            (2)  The court may confirm, modify or change the report
        or refer it back to the same or other viewers. A decree
        confirming, modifying or changing the report constitutes a
        final order.
            (3)  The amount of damages shall be determined by the
        court unless a jury trial has been demanded.
            (4)  At the trial of the case, the condemnee shall be the
        plaintiff and the condemnor shall be the defendant.
