I may have oversold the biking. It was a few laps around the neighborhood with one my kids. But still fun! Thanks again to everyone.

Best,

Jacob

I sure thank everyone for the help, and I am embarrassed I didn’t see the statute, that had the answer in black and white, before I posted. I think with this I’m heading home for a bike ride.

You can probably put in the declaration of completion/compliance of the PR’s death to advise the court and the heirs that this has happened and then the language providing for objection and closing within 30 days…  if any objection received, a new PR will need to be appointed prior to hearing.

I have not done this but my suggestion.

Similar question – but different:

If a PR dies at the close of estate administration, leaving only the declaration of completion to be filed and notice sent to heirs and beneficiaries to finish the job, can the attorney for the PR finish it up?  PR died intestate, decedent’s 2 year date of death anniversary is March 5, 2021, notice to creditors was published and claims have been resolved.

If an heir or beneficiary responded to the notice of filing within 30 days, the attorney would seek to have another PR appointed, but it is unlikely in this case.

Attorney would like to get this case off her desk…

Subject: [WSBAPT] Successor PR Question

I have a pretty basic question involving a successor PR. Should the new PR file and publish a new notice to creditors, especially if you are still within four months after publication? This seems like a basic question but I am not coming up with the answer.

Thanks,

Jacob
