<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">I have been in those shoes and it’s frustrating to get silence when a little disclosure could go a long way toward easing distrust and suspicion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">And I agree that the argument could be made that basic fiduciary duties sometimes include a duty to inform, especially if in the specific circumstances, the failure to timely provide information
actually jeopardized the beneficiary’s interest in some way. But the “jeopardy to beneficiary’s interest” is almost sure to arise from an actual fiduciary breach, meaning it would be independently actionable regardless of whether or when the beneficiary is
informed about it. Receiving information has, I think, more to do with determining when a statute of limitation accrues.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">I don’t think a PR has a duty to inform analogous to a Trustee’s under
<a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=11.98&full=true#11.98.072">
RCW 11.98.072</a>. Even the fiduciary duties under <a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=11.104B&full=true#11.104B.050">
RCW 11.104B.050</a> don’t talk about providing information, and other statutes go out of their way to make clear that the fiduciary does not have a duty to inform as to certain elections or adjustments during a trust administration. See, e.g.,
<a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=11.104B&full=true#11.104B.060">
RCW 11.104B.060(4)</a>, <a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=11.104B&full=true#11.104B.070">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">Having also frequently represented PRs who are dealing with cranky beneficiaries who want to yank the steering wheel away from the driver, or demand copious amounts of useless and irrelevant

<p class="MsoNormal">Anyone have recent motion practice filings addressing a personal representative who believes because he has nonintervention powers, he does not have to keep the estate’s beneficiaries reasonably informed about the status of the estate despite
requests for information. For example, not disclosing to the beneficiaries that an offer was accepted on the estate’s farm property and of the closing date?
