[WSBARP] Probate question

[Dalynne Singleton]

The court is going to want to appoint both according to the Will.  If one PR wants to serve solely, then note the hearing and give notice to the other co-PR.  That way, if no response or they don't show up, the court will probably appoint just one.  If they show up and want to be appointed, then the court will abide by the Will UNLESS they are ineligible such as convicted felon, minor, etc.

Subject: [WSBARP] Probate question

Hello,

Decedent's Will appoints two people as co-PR's. If one of the appointed people wishes to commence probate independently and get himself appointed as PR, does he have to give notice to the other appointed person? I reviewed RCW 11.68.011 and .041 but the answer is not apparent to me. If no clear answer, then best practice?

Thanks,

Hayes
