[WSBAPT] Motion for Instruction for DNA testing of possible estate beneficiary

[msafren at jennylinglaw.com]

Hello Fellow Listservs,

 

I have a case where I represent the administrator of an estate and some
evidence has come to light that causes the administrator to question the
parentage of a possible estate beneficiary.  If it was determined that this
person, whose parentage is in question was not the child of the decedent,
then that person would not longer be an heir or beneficiary of the estate
under the rules of intestacy.

 

As such, I think it I appropriate to motion the Court for instruction and
include in the Order that the person whose parentage is questioned,
participate in a DNA test to establish their relationship to the decedent.

 

Does anyone have any experience with something like this?  If so, could I
schedule a time to ask you a few questions about testing and/or testing
process, and supportive case law? RCW 26.26A.310 permits testing under the
Uniform Parentage Act. 

 

Thanks very much! 

 

Kind regards,

 

Michael S. Safren, Esq.
