<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Thank you for the fantastic discussion folks. I'm inclined to agree that the amended language in RCW 11.68.110 does not apply to my client/this estate if only for the simple fact that we did not conform to
the strictures of the new rule, either. In order for us to hold the beneficiaries' feet to the proverbial fire of the TEDRA filing requirement, I would think I would at least need to have clean hands under the updated statute. I do not! I instead filed under
the old rules, and so I cannot imagine a court finding that the rule changed midstream but our failure to meet the new strictures is waived due to the timing of our filing. That said, worse comes to worst, I'll throw in the argument that any objection after
July 25 should have been filed under TEDRA and see which spaghetti sticks to the wall.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

is explain the potential downsides): I spoke with my client & explained to them the options and the potential pitfalls. They agree that we should go ahead and close the estate, and be prepared to fight back if the heirs can get around my objections to the
defects in their pleading.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Notice of Filing of Declaration of Completion processes that were initiated but not fully completed by July 25 are invalid and must be re-initiated. As a matter of due process you can’t send out a notice that says one thing about how to object to closure,
and then change the law midstream to require something different. It seems unlikely the legislature intended to literally cancel all Declarations of Completion that were filed/served within 30 days of July 25.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">RCW 11.68.110 just changed substantively on July 25 (see section 4014 of
<a href="http://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/2021-22/Pdf/Bills/Session%20Laws/Senate/5132.SL.pdf" target="_blank">
http://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/2021-22/Pdf/Bills/Session%20Laws/Senate/5132.SL.pdf</a>), which means you are trapped in the limbo of determining retroactive effect. Before July 25, the law said you can file an objection in the probate matter, and it
strongly implies it’s the PR’s obligation to set it for hearing if such an objection is filed. Now, the objection has to be a separately filed TEDRA petition and it’s not the PR’s job to set it for hearing. (I don’t know the answer re retroactivity, I’m just
being “helpful” by complicating the situation further. Sorry about that.)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Under the old rules, an objection could demand an “accounting” of the Estate. The pro se objection referring to “misused the inheritance” could be construed by the court to be an
inartful demand for accounting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I would throw the dilemma into the client’s lap. Explain the two options and the costs/risks involved with each, and let the client decide. My kneejerk inclination is to close and
defend later if need be, but I don’t know the personalities involved here so it’s difficult to assess the risk. In all events I’d want the client’s buy-in to that option: the client has to understand that if they need to defend themselves afterward, they’ll
be paying for their defense out of their own pocket; whereas if they do the accounting etc. to get court approval and discharge, the estate would pay for all that because it’s clearly the PR doing work in discharge of their duties.<o:p></o:p></p>

for not being conciliatory to <i>pro se </i>litigants. My gut is that I should do the latter: ignore, direct disbursement, and defend my client on the basis that no petition was filed if ever I have to defend them, but I just want to suss out whether anyone
