RULE 57                                                
                   DECLARATORY JUDGMENTS                                         
                                                                                 
    The procedure for obtaining a declaratory judgment pursuant to the           
Uniform Declaratory Judgments Act, RCW 7.24, shall be in accordance with         
these rules, and the right to trial by jury may be demanded under the            
circumstances and in the manner provided in rules 38 and 39. The existence       
of another adequate remedy does not preclude a judgment for declaratory          
relief in cases where it is appropriate. The court may order a speedy            
hearing of an action for a declaratory judgment and may advance it on the        
calendar.
