  2. Article 12. Registering Title to Real Property

§ 392. Fraud; action to set aside or appeal from the final order or

judgment of registration or to recover the property. Any title

registration procured by or as the result of fraud may be set aside, in

the same manner and by the same proceedings as in the case of a deed

obtained by fraud, provided that such proceedings for setting aside the

registration shall not injuriously affect the rights of an innocent

purchaser or incumbrancer of the property after such registration, for

value and without actual notice of the fraud, and provided further that

the action or other proceeding to set aside such registration be

commenced within ten years from the time when the final order or

judgment of registration was filed in the office of the county clerk of

the county in which the property is located. No action or proceeding or

appeal shall lie or be commenced, except on the ground of fraud as above

stated, to set aside or appeal from any final order or judgment of

registration or to modify or affect the same or for the recovery of

registered property or any estate, right or interest in or lien upon the

same or any part thereof, or to make any entry thereon, adversely to the

title or interest registered therein, as directed by a final order or

judgment of registration of the court, unless such action or proceeding

or appeal is commenced or taken within thirty days after a certified

copy of such final order or judgment of registration is filed in the

office of the registrar of the county in which the property is located.
