����� 105.720 Oath and report of commissioners. Before entering upon the discharge of their duties, the commissioners shall make and file their oath in writing to faithfully and impartially perform their duties as commissioners.

If exceptions are filed to the report, they may be heard with the motion to confirm, and the court may confirm, modify or set aside the report as is just, and in the latter case may appoint a new commission or refer the matter to the same commissioners with appropriate instructions.
