Greetings List Members - Sorry for anyone who is on both RP and PT that got
this twice.

In an effort to attempt to avoid an unnecessary rejection by King County
Recording - can anyone advise regarding the following:

Client has obtained legal separation. We have a court order establishing
this. However, they are a HNW couple and have created a confidential
property settlement agreement that is referenced by the Court order but
obviously not part of the record.

I am wanting to transfer title on a property under the 458-61a-203(2)
provision but am uncertain as to what additional documentation may be
required with the REETA.  Example, when I transfer through probate, I
upload to Simplifile the Letters authorizing the PR to act.

What, if anything, do I need to include here? I am happy to upload the
Court order as it shows the parties names and that they are separating, but
it does not actually prove that House A is being Transferred to Spouse Y.

Thank you,
Brent
