<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can anyone point me to the rule or statute regarding the need for appointment of a probate GAL for a minor Beneficiary?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Personal Rep is petitioning the court to redirect payable on death (to the minor child) assets to the minor trust (for the benefit of the same minor child) he created in his LWT.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our legal basis is (1) abatement and (2) mistake.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I believe that a GAL is appropriate, but I am having trouble finding the applicable SPR rule or RCW.<o:p></o:p></p>
