[WSBAPT] RCW 11.88.150 (2)

[Dewey Weddle]

Esteemed colleagues,

Before the UGA was enacted, it was possible to transform a guardianship case into a probate case using RCW 11.88.150 (2).  On the new pattern forms it is possible (by checking the appropriate box) to have the Court issue Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration, but looking at the UGA, there does not seem to be legal authority for doing so.  I am trying to transform a guardianship into a probate, but the Court will not issue Letters until I can provide the legal authority, essentially telling me that I need to open probate under a new cause number. Am I missing something, or is this just another reason to dislike the UGA?


Best regards,


Dewey
