<p class="MsoNormal">Hi David,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I assume the kids are located in WA currently? That sounds like a legal nightmare. I’ve dealt with guardianships both in CA and WA, and the transfer of a minor guardianship from CA to WA. Even if the courts approve this, I foresee at
least 2, maybe 3 different court cases if the children start out in WA. And there will need to be two, maybe three, investigations and reports to the courts.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I wouldn’t recommend it, but if there is a lot of money for dealing with the court, and (maybe) if the parents state in their wills exactly why they want this appointment of guardians, maybe it will be approved.
<o:p></o:p></p>
