<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word">My PR was appointed on December 11. The PR has not even received the death certificate yet (although he hopes to have it this week) and the bank is not distributing the deceased's funds until
they get one. Today, he came into my office and said he just "found out" about a couple retirement accounts the deceased had.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word">In other words, we are very very early in the process.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word">Yesterday, I got an email from an heir (hereinafter referred to as "Scrooge") demanding an accounting of the estate. She wants the accounting "by the close of business on December 26." (That
is not a typo, she really asked for a full accounting within four days to be delivered the day after Christmas).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word">RCW 11.44.015(1) says the PR shall make an inventory and appraisement within three months of appointment. RCW 11.44.015(2) says the PR shall furnish to an heir a true and correct copy of the
inventory and appraisement within ten days of the receipt of the request (paraphrased).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;word-wrap: break-word">So, what if Scrooge requests the I&A within ten days of appointment? I want to read this that after the three month mark, the PR will have to disclose the I&A within 10 days (or exactly at the
three month mark, because the 10 day period is done). Any ideas? <o:p></o:p></p>
