Rule 17(b). Actions by personal representatives; setting aside judgment

    Actions for the recovery of personal property, debts or damages, and for the title to or possession of lands, or for any right attached thereto or arising therefrom, or for an injury or damage thereto may be commenced by an executor, administrator, or guardian appointed in this state in the same manner as if commenced by the testator or intestate, and judgment therein shall be as conclusive as if rendered in favor of or against the testator or intestate. The judgment may be set aside upon the application of any person interested for fraud or collusion on the part of the executor, administrator or guardian.
