[WSBAPT] Court order to close nonintervention estate - Clark County

[Conor Buie]

Colleagues:

 

Looking for guidance on procedure to close a nonintervention estate in Clark
County through court order.  PR was granted nonintervention powers; the
estate is now ready to be closed.  Distributions have been made, but one
heir has not cashed the distribution check nor signed and returned the
Waiver of Notice of Filing Declaration of Completion of Probate and Receipt
(mailed to the heir at the beginning of this month).  Not sure if the heir
intends to dispute the inventory, accounting, or overall administration, but
no action has been taken yet by this heir.  

 

The exact procedure to close a nonintervention estate by court order in RCW
11.68.100 and the Probate Deskbook are not 100% clear to me.  Do you follow
the procedures for closing an estate without nonintervention powers?  Can
anyone provide a sample of the motion/petition for an order closing a
nonintervention estate? 

 

Your guidance and assistance are greatly appreciated.
