<p class="x_MsoNormal">I think grandchildren take under RCW 11.04.015, but here are the facts. X dies. No Will. His only child predeceased him but had two children who are still living (had not seen or contacted their grandfather in 25 years). X’s brother
thinks he should get everything; I think the grandchildren are issue of the intestate under 015(2)(a) as some “degree of kinship” of the intestate.
