<p class="x_MsoNormal">Probate started in a county completely unrelated to the decedent’s county of passing, other than the matter was filed where the estate attorneys are located.  PR obviously blessed the move for tactical reasons, although PR resides in
 county of decedent’s death as are all other heirs but one ( who also wants the matter moved).  What is the process to move the proceeding? Do you go under RCW 4.12.030?  I could not find anything in the probate code dealing with moving a proceeding.  Your
 thoughts.</p>
