    <b>Rob:  I do it a little differently:</b><b><br>
    </b>
    <ol>
      <li><b>Under my NP, I give a 10-day notice under the NP statute of
          my intention to sell a parcel of real property.  That gives
          each interested party the opportunity to object.</b></li>
      <li><b>If no objection, then I proceed with the sale as stated in
          the notice.</b></li>
      <li><b>If objection, then I petition the Court for approval of the
          sale in a noticed hearing & give notice to all.</b></li>
    </ol>
    <p><b>The benefit of this is that at least in King County, a MSC
        requires an initial, non-noticed, ex-parte hearing for the Court
        to issue a Citation, at $20, which I've then got to serve on all
        interested parties along with a copy of the MSC.  My procedure
        avoids having the initial hearing & the issuance of the
        Citation.</b><b>  I've done this many times & never had a
        problem with the Court about it.</b><br>
