1Opinion of the CourtAppelwick, J.
Oscar and Barbara McCoy own Oscar’s II, a restaurant and lounge in Seattle. The City of Seattle filed a complaint against the McCoys, alleging that the building constituted a drug nuisance under chapter 7.43 RCW, because of illegal drug activity on the premises. The trial court found that Oscar’s “is a drug nuisance pursuant to Chapter 7.43 RCW and for one year shall be abated and closed to further operation of Oscar’s by and through the [d]efendants’ McCoy.” The order triggered a statutory provision placing the property in custody of the court. A stay was entered pending appeal.
