Description
January 19, 1959, Robert E. Burns and William S. Payne were involved in an automobile accident. Robert E. Burns and Marjorie R. Burns, his wife, commenced this action against William S. Payne and wife, Rice Trimble Company, and Emily E. Richardson, to recover damages. The complaint was filed July 16, 1959. The defendants Payne and Richardson served their answer December 22, 1959, and filed it with the clerk of the court February 9, 1961. The defendant Rice Trimble Company served its answer March 10, 1960. November 18, 1961, the attorney for the plaintiffs withdrew and, on November 21, 1961, present counsel for the plaintiffs prepared and attempted to file a notice with the clerk to place the case on the trial docket for setting. The request was refused by the clerk of the superior court because of Rule 35(b) of the Special Rules of the Superior Court for King County, which prohibits the noting of causes for trial when the pleadings are not filed. The answer of Rice Trimble Company was subsequently filed, and, December 1, 1961, the cause was noted for trial.
