You do not need to issue a new Offer of Reasonable Repayment Plan. As for the ERPP, you will need to discuss what the local DRC policy is for re-opening a matter. They get to decide whether they will give you the ticket to go to court or not and there's little, if not nothing, that can be done to force them to give you that permission no matter how unreasonable they are. So buckle up. To be safe, it's likely okay to re-serve another ERPP Notice of Resources to see if they will re-open the matter (but King County only lets you register a tenant once so it's important to find out what the policy is with that particular DRC). </div><div><br></div><div>Kaitlyn</div><div><br><p class="ri_default_signature"><i>Sent with <a href="https://www.rightinbox.com/?utm_source=signature" style="color:#a0d469">Right Inbox</a></i></p><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Sep 15, 2022 at 2:17 PM Gwendolyn Cornwell <<a href="mailto:Gwendolyn@glgmail.com">Gwendolyn@glgmail.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"><div class="msg-8638372632342089815">

<b>Subject:</b> [WSBARP] Default on LL's repayment plan<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Non-payment of rent case, LL serves the 14-Day Notice, ERPP Notices and LL’s Reasonable Repayment Plan on tenant. Tenant enters into LL’s repayment plan. ERPP emails LL and says since LL and T have entered into an agreement to resolve the
matter, they are closing the file. No certificate of participation is given to LL.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Tenant subsequently defaults on his repayment agreement with LL.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Question – Can LL now file a Summons and Complaint based on the tenant’s default of repayment plan? I would be illogical (but not surprising) to now have LL serve an additional 14-Day and ERPP notices, LL repayment plan etc. only to have
tenant again enter into an agreement, then default…and around and around we go. <u></u>
<u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our local standing order (Skagit) also requires a certificate of participation to be filed with any non-payment case. But we did not get one since tenant did not get assistance through the ERPP. How do you address that?
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve had a couple of these occur in the last month and wondering how other attorneys are approaching this scenario.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
