RAP 12.6 STAY OF MANDATE PENDING DECISION ON APPLICATION FOR REVIEW BY UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT

Except as provided in RAP 12.5, the appellate court will not stay issuance of the mandate for the length of time necessary to secure a decision by the United States Supreme Court on an application for review. In the event that the United States Supreme Court accepts review or grants certiorari and remands a case to the appellate court for further consideration, the clerk will recall the mandate.
