MARY W. SHEFFIELD, C.J.,
I concur with the principal opinion’s decision. In a separate lawsuit, the Murphys have brought multiple causes of action which seek to preserve and defend an asserted leasehold interest in the farm in question. If the Murphys are successful, such action would provide a complete remedy for any damages they may have sustained. The identity of the conservators (who are vested by statute with the obligation to bring and defend claims against the estate) is immaterial because it is the estate that will be bound by the outcome of that separate lawsuit. Since the estate will be bound if the Murphys win their separate lawsuit, no standing exists for the Murphys to appeal the denial of their motion to change conservators.
