Subject: [WSBAPT] Notice of Motion for Probate GAL?

 

Colleagues,

 

I have a case where probate was commenced and I now find myself in need of filing a motion to have a probate GAL appointed.  I’ve only had to do this once and in the prior case, all parents consented to the appointment of a probate GAL.  The PR (my client) has non-intervention powers in this case.  For various reasons, I do not want to provide notice of the motion for a probate GAL to the minor child’s mother if I do not have to (the father is the decedent).  I can’t find any authority on this.  Am I required to provide notice?  

 

Thank you,
