§58-336.
   
   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 same right to sue in a proper
   court for its recovery as other persons have when their claims against
   an estate are rejected.
