In case any district or districts are being organized within or partly within and partly without, the same territory in which some other district or districts have been or are being organized, then one district judge of each judicial district in which said conservancy districts have been or are being organized shall confer at the earliest convenient moment after they ascertain the possibility of a conflict in jurisdiction, the sitting to be had in the county having the largest assessed valuation in the proposed district or districts.
At such conference the several judges shall determine to what extent the several districts should be consolidated or to what extent the boundaries should be adjusted in order to most fully carry out the purposes of this act, and they shall by suitable orders make such determination effective. In the event notices have been issued or jurisdiction acquired in any proceedings concerning territory which is transferred to the district court of another county, such notice shall not become void and jurisdiction so acquired shall not be lost, but in each case the court acquiring jurisdiction over such transferred territory shall hold the same without further notice, as if originally embraced in said district.
At such conferences the decision of the majority of the judges shall be necessary for the determination of any matter, and from such decision or from a failure to decide, appeal may be taken.
The provisions of this and the preceding section shall not operate to delay or to interrupt any proceedings under this act until the question of jurisdiction has been fully determined by the court or courts.
