¶1
— Leo Bunker, Donald Williams, and Rachel Vincent were charged with criminal violations of no-contact orders under former RCW 26.50.110 (2006). The defendants1 argue that the language of the statute criminalizes only those contacts with a protected party that are violent, threaten violence, or occur in a specifically prohibited place. We hold that former RCW 26.50.110 correctly criminalizes all no-contact order violations and affirm the defendants’ convictions.
