<P class=MsoNormal>Thank you everyone for sharing information during this crazy
time! It occurs to me that if some counties are allowing probates to be opened,
in a pinch, we can use those counties to open critical matters. Possibly. I
already have two waiting…<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>We will find out about starting new probates in Clallam
County this morning; I have been in constant contact with the Court Clerk and
Administrator and am told we can start one by filing through their drop box and
that they will call me when the 1:00 p.m. exparte calendar starts.
However, if we can’t is the Supreme Court going to toll the Statute of
Limitations? The reason we need to start the probate today is because of
that.<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>As we face the quickly changing circumstances presented by
COVID-19, our firm wants to update you as to the steps that we are taking at
Sayre Law Offices. Our top priority is the health and safety of our
employees, clients, colleagues and friends, and all of their families and
communities.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>In order to slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus while still
serving our clients, our attorneys are working remotely. During this time,
our attorneys are able to make and receive telephone calls; access all of our
documents and servers; and access emails and voicemails. Our Seattle and
Vashon offices remain open with limited staffing to maintain critical functions,
and to route phone calls, mail, and deliveries. Our Olympia office is
closed. Attorney/client meetings will be handled by teleconference where
able, and signatures for estate planning or real estate transactions/closings
will be handled on a case-by-case basis. Many of the local courts have
postponed trials and hearings, or are moving them to telephonic proceedings
only. We are keeping up to date on those court closures and changes, and

<P class=MsoNormal>Hi Eric,<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Commissioner Judson and Moore and Nadia Simpson had a
telephone conference with the GELS section members and passed along the
following info:<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Because of the Supreme Court emergency order, all hearings
are continued until after April 24, unless it’s an emergency. Ex parte via
the clerk is suspended. Any hearings that are currently noted prior to April 24
will not be held. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>You can still e-file in King County. You can’t start a
new probate. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The commissioners are working on defining “emergency” and it
sounds like they will know it when they see it, but it may be case
specific.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></P>

closed. Attorney/client meetings will be handled by teleconference where
able, and signatures for estate planning or real estate transactions/closings
will be handled on a case-by-case basis. Many of the local courts have
