WA Supreme Court Homesteading Ruling

The Supreme Court of Washington State issued a decision Thursday, ruling that a truck owned by a homeless Seattle man that was towed and impounded by the city was protected under state homesteading laws.

The case dates back to 2016, when the man's 2000 GMC truck was ticketed and towed for violating Seattle’s 72-hour parking limit. At the time, he was storing his tools and sleeping in the truck.
