action is commenced to recover land or the possession thereof, the defendant may, at any time
before the trial, suggest upon the record that he, and those whose possession he has, have,

trial; entry of judgment and assessment of costs generally. The civil action may be tried
on the record without other pleadings, and the court shall hear all objections of the property
