<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Suppose:<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2010 successor trustees convey title from deceased parents’ trust to 7 children individually.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2012 one child, Sally, conveys with QCD her share to herself as trustee of her RLT. Some other siblings do similarly to their trusts.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2016 Sally signs QCD individually, not as trustee, to convey her share to the other 6 siblings individually, in exchange for other property outside of WA.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is the 2016 deed effective? If not, what is the best way to correct the record?<u></u><u></u></p>
