[WSBARP] Prescriptive Easement Claim and Probate

[samuel at meylerlegal.com]

Is the claimant of a prescriptive easement and/or adverse possession against
a decedent's property entitled to notice to creditor and are such claims
subject to claim limitation periods in probate?  In other words, is a claim
for a prescriptive easement and/or adverse possession barred if the claimant
fails to present the claim within the limitations period set forth in RCW
11.40 et seq.?  

 

I am not finding any authority directly on point.  It would seem strange
that claims that are considered perfected after the required period would be
barred and I would not call a claimant in this scenario a "creditor," but
these surely are "claims."
