§560:3-1005 Limitations on
proceedings against personal representative. Unless previously barred by
adjudication and except as provided in the closing statement, the rights of
successors and of creditors whose claims have not otherwise been barred against
the personal representative for breach of fiduciary duty are barred unless a
proceeding to assert the same is commenced within six months after the filing
of the closing statement. The rights thus barred do not include rights to
recover from a personal representative for fraud, misrepresentation, or
inadequate disclosure related to the settlement of the decedent's estate. [L
