It means that it is an unpublished opinion, lacking precedential value. See RCW 2.06.040. GR 14.1(a) states “A party may not cite as an authority an unpublished opinion of the Court of Appeals.” The case may be helpful to your understanding of the issues involved, but should not be cited as authority. You can be sanctioned for citing to an unpublished opinion.
