. Upon the filing of such a petition, the court shall specify a
time, not exceeding 20 days after the service of the copy of the
petition, within which the household goods carrier complained of
shall answer the petition, and in the meantime the carrier may be
restrained. In case of default in answer, or after answer, the court
shall immediately inquire into the facts and circumstances of the
case. Such corporations or persons as the court deems necessary or
proper to be joined as parties, in order to make its judgment, order
or writ effective, may be joined as parties. The final judgment in
any such action or proceeding shall either dismiss the action or
proceeding or direct that the writ of mandamus or injunction issue or
be made permanent as prayed for in the petition, or in such modified
or other form as will afford appropriate relief. An appeal may be
taken to the Supreme Court from such final judgment in the same
manner and with the same effect as appeals are taken from judgments
of the superior court in other actions for mandamus or injunction.
