Wash. Super. Ct. Civ. R. 57
Declaratory Judgments
The procedure for obtaining a declaratory judgment pursuant to the Uniform Declaratory
Judgments Act, RCW 7.24, shall be in accordance with these rules, and the right to trial by jury
may be demanded under the circumstances and in the manner provided in rules 38 and 39. The
existence of another adequate remedy does not preclude a judgment for declaratory relief in cases
where it is appropriate. The court may order a speedy hearing of an action for a declaratory
judgment and may advance it on the calendar.
