(iii) For mistake, neglect or omission of the clerk or irregularity in obtaining a judgment or order;

(iv) For fraud practiced by the successful party in obtaining a judgment or order;

(vii) For unavoidable casualty or misfortune preventing the party from prosecuting or defending;

(viii) For errors in a judgment shown by a minor within twelve (12) months after arriving at the age of majority;
