24.35 Annulment of certificates and patents. Whenever the board has erroneously or improperly issued any certificate or patent for any public lands whereby wrong or injustice has been or may be done, including cases in which the state had no title to the lands, or its title has failed, the board may, upon the written application of the purchaser, or the purchaser's successor in interest, revoke and annul the certificate or patent by its order, which, with the application, shall be filed and recorded in the board's office. A certified copy of the board's order may be recorded in the office of the register of deeds for the county where the lands lie, and upon the recording of the order, the certificate or patent shall be void.
