[WSBARP] Open probate vs. ancillary probate

[Dalynne Singleton]

You open the WA probate as a regular probate since there is no such thing as ancillary probate in WA.
Not sure why you would open as a TEDRA matter under RCW 11.96A.  I think your reference was meant to be RCW 11.96A(4)(b)(i) which provides you open WA probate in any county which you can do in WA for probates.

Subject: [WSBARP] probate vs. ancillary probate

Hello List mates,

Decedent died 2016  in Idaho and was a resident of Ada County at death.  The only thing that needs to be probated is Decedent's property in Whitman County.

Ok to open the probate in Whitman County under RCW 11.96A.050 (3)(b)(i) and avoid an ancillary probate?

Best,

Jenna Brozik
