Dear Mr. Braun:
In response to your e-mail message I can indicate that we do not currently maintain a lockbox or storage area for weapons here at the Temple of Justice. We have declined to provide a lock box for the following reasons:
(1) This building is entirely a court facility and, therefore, pursuant to RCW 9.41.300(b) no one should be entering the building with a weapon.
(2) The local legislative authority has not provided the court with a lock box.
(3) The court’s receptionists are not law enforcement officers and, thus, would be uncomfortable handling weapons handed over to them by visitors to the building.
