                 Although RCW 59.18.280 was recently amended to extend this time frame from 14 to
       21 days after the termination of the tenancy, see supra note 3, from its passage in 1973 until this
       amendment over 40 years later, the landlord was required to return the deposit and provide the
       statement within 2 weeks of the termination of the tenancy. Compare LAWS OF 1973, 1st Ex. Sess.,
       ch. 207, § 28, with LAWS OF 2016, ch. 66, § 4; see also URLTA (1972) § 2.101(b), 7B U.L.A. at
       309 (requiring the landlord to provide an itemized written notice together with any refund due
       within 14 days after the termination of the tenancy).

                 Indeed, in this case, the individual deposit Silver sought to recover was in the amount of
       $300. He sought to recover not only his deposit but double the amount, as provided under the
       RLTA, and the same relief for former tenants who would be members in a class action.
