BILL · 1993–94 SESSION

HB 1078: Interests passing at death

Regulating the passing of interests at death.

Summary

  • RCW 11.02.090 is repealed and a new statute is adopted providing that an otherwise effective written instrument is not testamentary solely because the instrument contains a provision for a nonprobate transfer of property at death. An instrument of transfer is effective if the instrument would be effective if it did not contain the provision for the nonprobate transfer at death.
