If, pursuant to an applicable statute or order of the court, the condemnor is required to deposit funds with the court in the amount the condemnor deems to be the amount of damages to which the owner is entitled pursuant to the condemnation, and a respondent is not satisfied with the amount deposited by the condemnor, or otherwise objects to the taking, then the respondent shall, on or before thirty (30) days from the date of notice of the filing of the petition, file an answer to the petition and a trial may thereafter be had before a petit jury, as other civil actions are tried. The deposit by the condemnor shall not limit or fix the amount to be allowed under subsequent proceedings in the action.
