Text: On April 1, 2021, Shavlik filed the present recall petition containing eight charges. 1 CP at 15-33; 2 CP at 216. The superior court held a sufficiency hearing on May 11, 2021, and dismissed petition IV. In dismissing the petition, the court found that charges 1(e) and 2 were barred by res judicata because they were previously litigated in the first and second recalls. Verbatim Report of Proceedings (VRP) at 34-36. The superior court found the remaining charges either factually or legally insufficient. Id. at 36-43. In response, Shavlik appealed directly to this court under RCW 29A.56.140. 4 In re Recall of Fortney, No. 99804-3
