Douglas v. Hill
Court of Appeals of Washington
1Opinion of the CourtGrosse, J.
¶1 A creditor need only establish a right to collect payment in order to void a fraudulent transfer under the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (UFTA).1 Hence, a creditor’s failure to record a lien with the local auditor does not preclude a claim under the UFTA. Here, to avoid paying a judgment against her, the defendant transferred her interest in real property to her husband, from whom she is *763legally separated. Because the transfer was made for the purpose of avoiding a creditor, such transfer is fraudulent under the UFTA as a matter of law. We reverse the trial court.
