11.94.110 - Ruling on court petition. - Washington Statutes

Ruling on court petition.

In ruling on a petition filed under RCW 11.94.090 and ordering any relief, the court must consider the best interests of the principal and will order relief that is the least restrictive to the exercise of the power of attorney while still adequate in the court's view to serve the principal's best interests. Upon entry of an order ruling on a petition, the court's oversight of the attorney-in-fact's actions and of the operation of the power of attorney ends unless another petition is filed under this chapter or unless the order specifies further court involvement that is necessary for a resolution of the issues raised in the petition.
