The Supreme Court of Washington, En Banc.

June 9, 1983.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Glen K. Thorsted, for appellants.

Russ Juckett, Prosecuting Attorney, and John T. Dalton, Deputy, for respondent.

Nicholas Wagner on behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union, amicus curiae for appellants.


ROSELLINI, J.

Appellants, Gold Bar Citizens for Good Government and Betty Marshall, seek review of a trial order excluding evidence of voting irregularity. The case presents an issue of first impression concerning the proper interpretation of those election statutes which pertain to voting by nonresidents. We hold that the trial judge erred in granting respondent's motion in limine. We reverse and remand for action consistent with this opinion.
