[WSBAPT] Restriction on Probate Disbursement to Minor Heir

[Jeff at bellanddavispllc.com]

Listmates:

 

This is a new one for me.  A minor, an heir to grandmother's estate, will
inherit monies in excess of $100,000.00.  The GAL, for the minor, initially
recommended those funds be placed in a blocked account until the minor turns
18.  Now, the GAL questions whether Special Proceedings Rule 98.16W(j)
controls and that the funds should be placed in a trust.  We debated whether
that rule even applies to a probate inheritance that has nothing to do with
an injury claim, but arguments can be made both ways.  Have any of you dealt
with this?
