12-1125. Payment of damages in proceedings by railroad
A. If the property sought to be condemned is for a railroad, plaintiff shall, within thirty days after final judgment, pay the sum assessed, but may, before payment, elect to build fences and cattle guards. If plaintiff so elects, he shall execute and deliver to defendant a bond, with sureties to be approved by the court, in double the assessed cost thereof conditioned that plaintiff will build the fences and cattle guards within eighteen months from the time the railroad is built on the land taken, and if bond is given, plaintiff shall not be required to pay the cost of the fences and cattle guards to defendant.
B. In an action on the bond reasonable attorney's fees, in addition to all damages, may be recovered.
