[WSBAPT] Eviction Notice

[Danielle Flatt]

Mike,

Depending on your facts, an eviction may not the appropriate course of
action in your case.  If the relative was a co-habitant with the deceased,
then you may need to do an ejectment action, not an eviction, as the
relative can argue he was a tenant at will.  If you are taking the position
there was a rental agreement/tenancy between the relative and the deceased,
then you would need to follow the terms of the rental agreement and the
Residential Landlord Tenant Act.

Note also, if the property is within Seattle city limits, you also need to
make sure you follow the notice requirements of the Just Cause Eviction
Ordinance, which means you need a justified reason for ending a month to
month tenancy (e.g., the PR wants to move in himself, the PR needs to sell
the house, etc.).  The Just Cause Eviction Ordinance lists the allowed
reasons for terminating a month to month tenancy.  Depending on the reason
used as the basis for eviction, there are different timelines set out for
how much notice you have to give.
