My understanding is that last Friday's Thurston County Superior court ruling will go directly to the Washington State Supreme Court in July -- this is likely due to the fact that this is purely a state constitutional issue involving a state agency (the legislature), hence it would not be possible to have divergent rulings from the three appeals courts.

The Supreme Court will almost certainly leave the superior court ruling intact or possibly place both the HB 3003 version and 940 on the ballot. A more interesting question at this point would be: if the latter decision is made by the Supreme Court would De-escalate Washington and police groups work together to insure that the HB 3003 version gets passed in November?

The title for this article is something between meaningless and click-bait. Of course police groups would not support 940: why else would there have been a hard fought for compromise? The "subjective good faith test" required by 940 was stricken in the HB 3003 compromise & is a standard that will never be supported by police.

Indeed, looks like the Supreme Court hearing is July 20, 2018 (Case # 957495)
