<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Cindy – Please reference RCW 11.68.080 with respect to subsequent insolvency.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Depending on the status of the case, and the protection of creditors, you may be able to get your NI powers reaffirmed. If not, then you are in the process of closing the estate when you
don’t have non-intervention powers. See RCW 11.76. Seems counterproductive to have extra work for insolvent estates, but that is what is required unless the NI powers are reaffirmed. Think of the need to protect the creditors if seeking reaffirmation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">I am handling the probate for a King County intestate estate that just became insolvent, and I hadn't traveled that road until now. The administrator has nonintervention
powers that were affirmed late last week. Creditors' claims were held, but all are valid. One is a claim by a lienholder on real property that sold for just enough to pay the loan balance, leaving absolutely nothing left to pay any unsecured creditors or even
administration costs, which the administrator has personally covered. The creditors received notice that the estate is now insolvent. <span style="background:white">What is the most efficient way to close the estate? Just petition to close? Draft letters to
the creditors and then petition to close? I'm not finding a lot of guidance in probate resources.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
