SEATTLE (AP) — The Legislature needs more time to figure out a state education budget before it can properly reply to a contempt order from the Washington Supreme Court, the state attorney general told the high court Monday. In his written report, state Attorney General Bob Ferguson asked the court to wait until the special session has ended to decide whether to issue sanctions. "[...] the Legislature has concluded its work for 2015 and the governor has acted on the budget and any other education-related legislation that has passed both houses, the state cannot represent to the court whether actions taken this session achieve compliance with the court's orders," Ferguson said in the 13-page report.
