525.102 REFERENCE.
After such appointment the judge by order may refer to the referee any matter, cause, or
proceeding pending in such court. In all matters so referred the referee shall find the facts and
report the findings to the judge. In all matters referred and reported the referee may append the
referee's signature to the order or decree of the court; and whenever this signature shall be so
appended, it shall constitute conclusive evidence that the matter was referred, heard, and reported
in the manner required by law and the order of the court therein, provided that the failure of the
referee to append the referee's signature to any such order or decree shall not affect its validity.
