I need to submit my motion to vacate conviction to the sentencing court. But, I live in Seattle and the court is in Walla Walla. This is a 5 hour drive. Can I have a notary witness my signature and submit it by mail?

In Washington it is usually not necessary to notarize pleadings and motion forms.

Good Luck
