[WSBAPT] Closing Estate - Final Report - RCW 11.76.040

[Jeff at bellanddavispllc.com]

Thanks you Dalynne for this information.  My case is very contested.  I
represent the surviving wife, who was appointed PR over the community
property.  We actually did all of the required probate things.  The PR,
appointed in the husband's Will, was an adopted child who did not want to
follow the Will or any of the procedures, and refuses to deed over property
given to the Wife.  This all started in 2022; the court ordered mediation
twice, but the PR refused to agree on a mediator.  I tried to remove him,
but that was when the court ordered the second mediation.  This case was
ready to close in 2022.  In looking at the Statute, of course, the PR is to
propose the final report. He won't.  He wants the wife to give him the real
estate she is to get.  He's already gotten everything else.  I am ready to
file the final report, but my client is not the PR.  What do you think?

 

Jeff

I have always published and the one time I asked for a waiver, the Snohomish
County Commissioner told me no and I had to re-note, publish and come back.
Of course, no one showed at the 2nd hearing either.

Listmates,

 

I always thought if closing an estate using a final report and a hearing,
rather than a notice of completion, that you simply gave interested parties
a notice of hearing.  RCW 11.76.040 appears notice of hearing must be
published, in addition to serving it on interested parties.  Have any of you
done it that way?
