<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone have a statute or rule that you can direct me to that shows the requirements in Washington for an exemplified copy? I tried performing a search and had no luck. Out of state court clerk is requiring source of validity of process
because apparently out of state court uses 3 seals and our Washington court clerks use only 2.<o:p></o:p></p>
