<p class="MsoNormal">Good afternoon, listmates:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Nonintervention PR lives out of state, as does adult daughter. PR travelled one or two times to WA on estate business. He also delegated many administrative tasks to adult daughter. Adult daughter and her husband charged over $12k in expenses
to estate, including about $4,000 only for travel. PR also charged his own fee to the estate, and his own expenses. Total gross value of estate was under $300k.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Even granting the broad discretion afforded to nonintervention PRs, am I alone in thinking those expenses are excessive? I would welcome insight and authority supporting same, if possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks, <o:p></o:p></p>
