      excessive, unequal or unlawful, or that real property is misclassified.
        2.  A  proceeding  to  review  an  assessment  shall be founded upon a
      petition setting forth the respect in which the assessment is excessive,
      unequal  or  unlawful,  or  the  respect  in  which  real  property   is
      misclassified  and  stating  that  the  petitioner is or will be injured
      thereby. Such petition shall be duly  verified  by  the  petitioner,  an
      officer  thereof,  or  by  an  agent  thereof who has been authorized in
      writing to verify and file such petition and whose authorization is made
      a part of such petition. Such petition must show that  a  complaint  was
      made  in due time to the proper officers to correct such assessment. Two
      or more persons having real property assessed upon  the  same  roll  who
      assert  the  same grounds for review presenting a common question of law
      or fact, may unite in the same petition.
