Seattle Landlord Victory: First-Come, First-Served Law Struck Down I am pleased to announce that King County Superior Court Judge Susanne Parisien has struck down the first-come, first-served law adopted by Seattle City Council in 2016. The ruling means Seattle must immediately stop enforcing the law adopted by City Council as it has been found to violate the state constitution. The law required landlords to choose among qualified applicants based on a first-come, first served basis, meaning that the landlord needed to choose the first applicant who met the landlord-set criteria rather than choosing the best applicant that met the landlord-set criteria. The Judge said, "choosing a tenant is a fundamental attribute of property ownership". The reason I am so relieved and excited to hear ... 03/30/2018
