Washington Supreme Court

As the highest court in the State of Washington, the mission of our court is to uphold the constitution and when called upon through cases, interpret laws passed by the legislature and enforced by the executive branches of government. We recognize that our decisions, how we reach them, and how people are treated when they come to court, matters. Justice matters.

We welcome you to take a look around on our website and learn more about our work whether it be reviewing briefs, or petitions for review, or holding oral arguments. Given the impact our decisions have on Washingtonians and our role as the head of one of the three branches of government, we take great strides to provide open and transparent access.

In addition to our daily work related to cases, a tremendous amount is done at the Supreme Court by our departments: the Supreme Court Clerk's Office, Commissioner's Office, Reporter of Decisions Office and state Law Library.

We also invite you to see our court up close and in action. There are a variety of ways you can do that, including:

We invite you to watch our court hearings, which are all broadcast live online or televised by TVW, Washington's Public Affairs Station and to connect with us on social media, either on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or Flickr.

The judicial branch is responsible for the delivery of justice and those of us who work in the branch are stewards of justice. We are proud to serve you.

Sincerely,
Chief Justice Steven C. González
