[WSBAPT] Small estate affidavit?

[Krista MacLaren]

I wonder if you could send him a copy of the will and a check for $1, so that his interest has been provided for. Then omit him from the small estate affidavit as a claiming successor.  I will be curious to hear other responses.

She left her estate to her child and two of her step children. She left the third stepchild one dollar. Must this third step child be given notice as a claiming successor? To further complicate matters, he is a ward of another state.
