<p class="MsoNormal">No-asset estate, just personal effects of
nominal value. Surviving spouse and five kids, one of whom
is 13 years old. Received a bunch of creditor claims
totalling about $10,000.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Only opened the probate to investigate a
wrongful death claim, which was a no-go, so now we need to
shut it down with an accounting and final hearing to approve
no distribution, no payment to creditors.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">RCW 11.76.080(2) seems in indicate that
appointment of GAL for the minor child is mandatory. Is that
right? If so, who is going to pay the GAL? The Estate has
literally nothing--no cash, no vehicle, just some clothes
and other effects of no value.<o:p></o:p></p>
