[WSBARP] What to do with personal property

[Jennifer Johnson]

Hello all,

A client had previously been letting a family (Husband, Wife and Child) live in a mobile home on client’s property.  No rent, no agreement.  About two weeks ago, Husband threatened to kill client’s wife and was arrested and charged with felony harassment.  There is a no-contact order prohibiting the Husband from going back to the property and contacting client.  Wife and Child moved from the mobile home, and Wife was told by a sheriff’s deputy that she would be charged with trespassing if she went back to the property.  Apparently, Husband and Wife left a lot of personal property in and around the mobile home and Client has heard that they don’t plan to get any of it.  He wants to go ahead and get rid of it.  Are there any notice requirements or procedure he needs to follow?  I’m only familiar with what is set out in the RLTA but I don’t believe that applies here.

If someone can point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you,
