<br>
In In re Estate of Kershner, an unpublished DIV II case, the PR, son 1, was removed and son 2, the alternate PR was appointed without bond. Son 1 objected saying “but he’s a felon so not qualified, and a bond should have been required.” The court said “nah, testator’s intent controls pursuant to RCW 11.12.230”. In its discussion, the court noted that the felony took place 20 years prior to Mom writing her will, and also referred to RCW 9.95.240 (which relates to RCW 9.94A. 640 – the dismissal or vacating of a conviction) which Rob and others have suggested would help.<br>
So, I think it depends on the facts. Was the felony before or after the writing of the will? Do any of the beneficiaries object? Etc.<br>
I’ve had the court appoint a grandmother of a 7 year old as the guardian even though she was a felon (had been in jail at least a couple of years for the sale of drugs in her younger days). The guardianship statute says felons can’t be guardians. Since the choice was that or place the child in fostercare, the court found it was in the child’s best interest to appoint her.<br>
So, I guess I’m in the “it can be done” camp.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Suppose there is an intestate estate where the surviving spouse has a felony conviction. RCW 11.36.010 says this would disqualify the spouse from serving as PR (and presumably as Administrator of intestate estate). Suppose the other heirs were willing to waive this issue. Could the court grant letters given the waivers, or is that a nonwaivable disqualification? Thanks for your insight.</span></p>
