RAILWAY ACT (IRELAND) 1851 - SECT 27

Verdict on traverse to have effect of judgment.

27. The entry of the verdict of the jury in case of each traverse in the crown
book shall be a final decision, and binding upon all parties interested, and
shall have the effect of a judgment at law obtained in the [High Court of
Justice in Northern Ireland] against the company, and may be enforced by like
remedies against the company, as in the case of a judgment at law, by all
parties interested therein; and in each case where a certificate shall have
been delivered, such damages shall be taken and recovered in lieu of the
monies expressed to be payable by the certificate, and which shall, on payment
of the damages and any costs payable by the company, be delivered up to the
said company, and such receipt for such damages shall be given as is
herein-before provided in cases of payment of monies on such certificates as
aforesaid; and where such damages shall be given in respect of any land, the
amount of the price or compensation in respect of which, as ascertained by an
award under this Act, shall have been paid into court, then, if the amount of
such damages shall be less than the amount paid into court, the company shall,
on a summary application by petition, be entitled to receive the difference
between the amount of such damages and the amount of the sum paid into court,
but if the amount of such damages shall exceed the amount of the monies paid
into court, then the difference between the amount paid in and the damages
shall, at the costs of the company, be paid into court; and the payment of
such difference into court, and the payment of any costs payable by the
company in respect of such traverse, shall be a good discharge to the company
on any such verdict in the nature of a judgment as aforesaid.
