Spokane Center for Justice

leave a comment »

I am working at the Spokane Center for Justice which is a privately funded non-profit organization. Specifically I am working in their community advocacy clinic. Today I started by updating the law that the other interns use when looking up information relating to a specific client. The first area I was assigned was landlord/tenant law. This may seem very trite but I appreciate the real world application I am having to property. In Beard’s class we recently finished landlord/tenant law and it is great to see such terms in Washington state law as periodic tenancy, month-to-month- tenancy, warranty of habitability and the likes. To see the law in another place besides a textbook has so far been a great experience…..Heidi Tolman
