[WSBARP] UD Gurus

[Paul Neumiller]

Can’t find the tenant so need to use RCW 59.18.055.  Now, my filed summons
says that it must be answered within “Twenty Days after Date of Service,”
which is a moving target.  BUT RCW 59.19.055 says “(a) The summons and
complaint shall be posted in a conspicuous place on the premises
unlawfully held, not less than nine days from the return date stated in
the summons; and (b) Copies of the summons and complaint shall be
deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, by both regular mail and certified
mail directed to the defendant's or defendants' last known address not
less than nine days from the return date stated in the summons.” (emphasis
added) .  

 

How does that work??  My summons doesn’t have a “stated” return date.
What do you guys do?  Post and mail and then wait 20 days or file an
amended summons with a date certain, say 10 or 12 days out, and then post
and mail?
