[WSBAPT] notice to heirs prior to PR appointment

[Heather deVrieze]

I usually try to handle these by way of a waiver of notice of petition for
appointment of Personal Representative and petition for nonintervention
powers, together with a consent to waiver of bond.  The week or so it
might take to get emailed off to everyone, to get them back by scan/fax or
mail seems better than setting a 14 day noticed hearing, when I can find
everyone and they are not going to show up to contest.

Subject: [WSBAPT] notice to heirs prior to PR appointment

 

client is a niece of decedent.  decedent had no children..LW&T says
decedents' dad should be PR; (he is deceased) if he can't do it decedent's
brother should be PR (he is also deceased).

all assets under will go to dad, but if dad doesn't survive to brother,
"or his issue by representation".

 

Niece is petitioning to be PR,.  Her sibblings are supportive, but she is
not named in will.  

I think i need to get a waiver  of notice of hearing (which would be worky
there are 3 sibblings spread out all over) or give a notice.  Do i have to
give a notice of application to be appointed PR at a certain hearing?
(which would mean I would have to show up notwithstanding i know no one
will be there) or can the notice say, After _____ days niece will be
petitioning to be appointed as PR? If so how many days?

 

thanks
