     525.02 Powers.  

    In addition to its general powers, the court shall have 
 power to correct, modify, vacate, or amend its records, orders 
 and decrees: 

    (a) At any time, for the correction of clerical error or 
 pursuant to the provisions of section 524.3-413.  

    (b) Within the time for taking an appeal, for the 
 correction of judicial error; 

    (c) Within two years after petitioner's discovery thereof, 
 for fraud, whether intrinsic or extrinsic, or misrepresentation 
 unless petitioner be a party to such fraud; 

    (d) Within two years after the date of filing of any 
 record, order or decree, for excusable neglect, inadvertence or 
 mistake. 

    In any case, the petitioner must proceed with due diligence 
 and may be barred by laches or the court may deny relief where 
 it appears that the granting thereof would be inequitable in 
 view of all the facts and circumstances appearing.
