SMITH, J.
This case involves the simple question whether Washington's theft statute, RCW 9A.56.020(1), retains the common law requirement of "intent to permanently deprive," although the language of the statute merely states "intent to deprive." We answer that it does not.
Petitioner Joseph A. Komok, age 16, was convicted in the Juvenile Department of the King County Superior Court
