Subject: Re: [WSBAPT] Later Found Will
I had this scenario about a year ago, and submitted the will and explained it was for informational purposes because it preceded the decedent’s marriage. In our case, there was little community property because of a short term marriage but the husband got one-half of the decedent wife’s separate property.
Sent from Amy's iPhone, which spells as it pleases and is not grammar correctly.

Listmates: How do I deal with an open intestate probate when we have found the Will. Background: H dies in 2017. Wife does nothing at the time but now has problem transferring real property (surprise surprise). For various reasons (like no knowledge of a Will), we open an intestate probate without publishing notice (because, well, H died over four years ago). We asked that everything go to W as community property because they were married for so long, and no inheritance, etc. Well, W just found a 1986 military Will hidden in rafters of house where everything goes to her anyway. What do you recommend I do here? Thanks. I know this is covered in the RCWs somewhere but I can’t find it.
