Sec. 6. Judicial review of order of board, and procedure therefor; authority of court.
   Any person aggrieved by any decision of the board of review may present to the supreme court a petition, duly verified, setting forth that such decision is illegal in whole or in part, and specifying the grounds of the illegality. Such petition shall be presented to the court within thirty days after the filing of the decision in the office of the board. Upon the presentation of such petition, the court may allow a writ of certiorari directed to the board of review to review such decision of the board of review and shall prescribe therein the time within which a return thereto must be made, which shall be not less than ten days and may be extended by the court. The allowance of the writ shall not stay proceedings upon the decision appeal[ed] from, but the court may, on application, upon notice to the board and on due cause shown, grant a restraining order.
   The board of review shall not be required to return the original papers acted upon by it, but it shall be sufficient to return certified or sworn copies thereof or of such portions thereof as may be called for by such writ. The return shall concisely set forth such other facts as may be pertinent and material to show the grounds of the decision appealed from and shall be verified.
   If, upon the hearing, it shall appear to the court that testimony is necessary for the proper disposition of the matter, it may take evidence or appoint a master to take such evidence as it may direct and report the same to the court with his findings of fact and conclusions of law, which shall constitute a part of the proceedings upon which the determination of the court shall be made. The court may reverse or affirm wholly or partly or may modify the decision brought up for review. (P.L. 1959, ch. 72, § 6.)
