<div dir="ltr"><div>I don't think the 90 day notice applies in any other circumstances other than landlord/tenant relationships. The statute applies to RCW 59.18. So if they are not tenants, they don't get the 90 day notice. I believe that they would be tenants at sufferance and therefore "reaosnable" notice would be required and RCW 59.12 still allows 20 day notices so that's what I've used to determine "reasonable" notice. <br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Jul 12, 2021 at 2:30 PM Josh Grant <<a href="mailto:jgrant@accima.com">jgrant@accima.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

charged. Now the people appear to be attempting to take over a portion
of the property for themselves. They have installed fencing around a
portion of the RV; they removed trees and shrubs; they took over a garage;
they even brought a large pet snake onto the property which they were told
before, they could not due. They even told a Sheriff Deputy that they
own the property (in order to have an abandoned care removed). The
clients want these people to move.<u></u><u></u></p>
