[WSBAPT] Template for Motion to Reopen Probate Case

[Sara Longley]

As it happens, I have had to file a couple of these recently.  A sample petition is attached.  Note that I have no idea how long is a "reasonable time" in which to request a waiver of the case filing fee.

Best of luck and happy holidays,
Sara

Subject: [WSBAPT] Template for Motion to Reopen Probate Case


Hello Fellow Listservs,



A client came to me after a probate case was closed in Pierce County due to inactivity.  Does anyone have a motion to reopen probate after inactivity that they can share with me?



Thanks so much!



Kind regards,

Michael S. Safren, Esq.
Attorney at Law
