[WSBAPT] statute of limitations to publish notice to creditors

[Eric Nelsen]

Correct--more than 2 years after date of death, best not to publish because all potential creditor claims are barred anyway.

Sincerely,

Eric

Subject: [WSBAPT] statute of limitations to publish notice to creditors

Hello list mates,

RCW 11.40.051 (c) provides that if notice was not provided under this chapter or chapter 11.42 the creditor must present the claim within 24 months after the decedent's death.

I am opening a probate where the decedent passed away in 2013, no notice to creditors needs to be published, correct?  What is the statute of limitations?

Thanks in advance,
