299F.16 Hearing.

The court upon motion of the state fire marshal shall make its order fixing a time and place for the hearing, which place may be at any convenient point within the judicial district, and which time shall be within ten days from the date of the filing of the answer, or as soon thereafter as may be. Upon the trial the order of the state fire marshal shall be prima facie evidence of the existence of the facts therein recited. If upon the trial the order of the state fire marshal shall be sustained, the court shall make its order accordingly and shall fix a time within which the building or structure shall be altered, repaired, or demolished, as the case may be, in compliance with the order of the state fire marshal, but otherwise the court may annul and set aside such order of the state fire marshal, or modify it if the facts so warrant.
