§560:3-613  Successor personal
representative.  Parts 3 and 4 of this article govern proceedings for
appointment of a personal representative to succeed one whose appointment has
been terminated.  After appointment and qualification, a successor personal representative
may be substituted in all actions and proceedings to which the former personal
representative was a party, and no notice, process or claim which was given or
served upon the former personal representative need be given to or served upon
the successor in order to preserve any position or right the person giving the
notice or filing the claim may thereby have obtained or preserved with
reference to the former personal representative.  Except as otherwise ordered
by the court, the successor personal representative has the powers and duties
in respect to the continued administration which the former personal
representative would have had if the appointment had not been terminated. [L
