Subject: [WSBARP] NJP Making it a Federal Case

 

Literally.  I represent LL in an unlawful detainer case.  Tenant is a
non-English native tongue speaker and NJP demands the court provide an
interpreter at the court's cost.  But tenant doesn't qualify for a free
attorney (makes over $54K a year) and court says RCW 2.43.040 requires T to
be indigent before court pays.  NJP argues that T's financial position is
irrelevant and, get this, RCW 2.43.040 violates federal due process and thus
unconstitutional.  Is there no notice requirement to the WA Attorneys
Office.  The hearing is this afternoon.  Any thoughts?
