Petitioners, DIVISION ONE 1
v. UNPUBLISHED OPINION
CAR WASH ENTERPRISES, INC., ro
a Washington corporation or other
business entity; and GARY KNIGHT
and "PAT DOE" KNIGHT, and their
marital community,
Respondents. FILED: October 5, 2015
PER CURIAM - John and Delia Hoag seek discretionary review under RAP
2.3(b)(1) of a July 7, 2015 trial court order denying their affidavit of prejudice and a July
15, 2015 order denying reconsideration. We have reviewed the motion and answer,
with appendices, and determined that review should be granted.
The trial court denied the Hoag's affidavit of prejudice on the ground that the
court had made a discretionary ruling. But the order amending case schedule was
before the court on a stipulation between the parties. See In re Marriage of Tve, 121
Wn. App. 817, 90 P.3d 1145 (2004), and State v. Parra. 122 Wn.2d 590, 859 P.2d 1231(1993) (citing State ex rel. Floe v. Studebaker, 17 Wn.2d 8, 134 P.2d 718 (1943).
Because the Hoags filed their affidavit of prejudice before the trial court made any
No. 73792-9-1/2
discretionary ruling, it was error to deny the affidavit of prejudice. Accordingly, the stay
is lifted, and we reverse and remand for further proceedings consistent with this order.
Reversed and remanded.
For the court:
