Washington Pretrial Order Forms are forms that must be completed by parties involved in a civil case in the state of Washington. The forms are used to set forth the terms of pretrial procedures, such as discovery, pretrial conferences, and the exchange of information. There are two types of Washington Pretrial Order Forms: the Long Form for cases with more than five claims and the Short Form for cases with five or fewer claims. The Long Form requires more detail in the areas of discovery, mediation, and trial scheduling, while the Short Form is more basic. Both forms include sections for the parties to agree upon a list of issues to be tried, a discovery plan, and a settlement conference.
