10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'">The new policy means I and other retired
attorneys will no longer be part of this listserv. I occasionally post on
historical evolution of real property procedure or law, as a contribution to
the education of those who come after me, and payback for those who helped me
as a newbie thirty-some years ago. If institutional memory is valuable, then
this listserv needs an emeritus status to include folks like me. If us old
folks are not of value, then cut us out. And before you say “just join
the section,” remember that retaining bar membership after retiring means
continuing to pay bar dues and CLE costs. Once you do that, you get tempted to
do some little piece of practice, and then you should be insured as well, and
that means needing more income, and suddenly you are not retired anymore.
Allowing non-practicing members of the bar to join still means you are going to
eliminate some of your oldest and most experienced current members, because
they retired.. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="'font-size:

updates and upcoming changes to both the Real Property and Probate & Trust
Listservs.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="'font-size:
12.0pt'">Starting February 1st, 2019, both listservs will only be accessible by
WSBA RPPT members. The RPPT Executive Committee decided after much deliberation
and input that the listservs should be an exclusive member benefit.
Starting February 1st, 2019, you will need to login into the <a
href="http: www.wsbarppt.com="" "="" target="_blank"><a href="http://www.wsbarppt.com">www.wsbarppt.com</a> website
using your section login and password in order to register for the listserv,
access the listserv archives, and/or unsubscribe to the listserv. <o:p></o:p></a

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="'font-size:
12.0pt'">Further, the Executive Committee has approved the adoption of new
guidelines, rules, and general etiquette for the listserv. These will be
posted on <a href="http://www.ws">www.ws</a>barppt,com under the listserv tab for all members to see and
review.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="'font-size:
12.0pt'">Lastly, beginning on February 1st, 2019, all listserv postings will
contain a disclaimer in the footer reminding all that while the listservs will
be restricted to RPPT section members, not all section members are practicing
attorneys. Section membership is open to law students, non-practicing
members of the bar, and even some non-attorney professionals in related fields
such as title officers, real estate agents, and escrow agents. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="'font-size:

listserv experience for section members and deliver value to members as one of
many available section member benefits.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
