7.48.085 - Moral nuisance -- Property owner may repossess. - Washington Statutes

Moral nuisance — Property owner may repossess.

If a tenant or occupant of a building or tenement, under a lawful title, uses such place for the purposes of maintaining a moral nuisance, such use makes void at the option of the owner the lease or other title under which he holds, and without any act of the owner causes the right of possession to revert and vest in such owner, who may without process of law make immediate entry upon the premises.
