[WSBARP] Reasonable Repayment Plan

[Kelby Derenick]

I had this exact question a month ago.  The statute does not mention what
to do with future rent but obviously it makes sense that future rent also
has to be paid as part of the repayment plan or else the  landlord would
have to offer another repayment plan for each missed rental payment.  It
just doesn't make sense.  I have not taken this issue to a hearing yet
though so I don't know what certain courts are doing.  Other attorneys here
said that they have been including future rent without a problem.
