However, RCW 59.18.057 (copied and pasted below) actually says that the 14 day notice must be "<i>substantially</i> in the following form" so there's an argument that the AG's version meets that standard. However, it is worth noting that the AG's office has been notified of this issue regarding their notices - and they may change them. My sense is that the political winds are blowing in the direction of helping landlords or attorneys move non-payment of rent cases forward. Not many cases have made it far enough to get a resolution to this issue any way because many DRCs are still withholding the necessary certificate of compliance (King County, for example) that allows the landlord to file the unlawful detainer, so cases are still not able to get before the court. I expect that when they do, we will see those forms from the AG's office challenged - and we will have to "wait and see" what the Commissioners do about that problem. </span><span
