Official statutory text
The judge of the district court may present a claim against the
estate of a decedent, for allowance, to the executor or
administrator thereof; and if the executor or administrator allows
or rejects the claim, he must, in writing, present the same to the
county clerk of the county, who shall thereupon be substituted in
the settlement of said estate in place of the judge of the district
court, as provided by law, and the judge of the district court
presenting such claim, in case of its rejection by the executor or
administrator, or by such county clerk, acting as judge, has the

persons have when their claims against an estate are rejected.
