1. Except as otherwise ordered by the court for good cause shown, an action or proceeding pending against a decedent at the time of the decedent’s death may not be continued against the decedent’s personal representative unless:
(a) A claim is first filed as provided in this chapter;
(b) The claim is rejected in whole or in part; and
(c) Within 60 days after notice of rejection is given, the claimant who is the plaintiff applies to the court in which the action or proceeding is pending for an order substituting the personal representative in the action or proceeding. This requirement applies only if the notice of rejection contains a statement that the claimant has 60 days within which to apply for an order of substitution.
2. No recovery may be allowed in an action against property in the estate of a decedent unless proof is made of compliance with this section.
