[WSBAPT] Closing Ancillary Probate in WA

[Jennifer Tengono]

Good afternoon, 

 

I am working on an ancillary probate in Washington where the decedent was a
resident of Idaho. The Idaho probate is wrapped up and there was property
held in Washington. The PR opened an ancillary probate in Washington and
sold the only asset - farmland. The PR has decided not to publish a notice
to creditors in Washington because they are confident all creditors have
already been given notice and the notice period for the Idaho creditor's
claims has long expired. Is there a minimum timeframe in which the
Washington probate must be kept open or can the PR file the Declaration of
Completion now that the only Washington asset has been disposed of? 

 

Respectfully, 

 

Jennifer Tengono
