## Text

The superior courts have jurisdiction over extreme risk protection order proceedings under this chapter. The juvenile court may hear an extreme risk protection order proceeding under this chapter if the respondent is under the age of 18 years. Additionally, district courts have limited jurisdiction over the issuance and enforcement of temporary extreme risk protection orders issued under RCW 7.105.330 . The district court shall set the full hearing in superior court and transfer the case.

The superior court to which the case is being transferred shall determine whether to grant any request for a continuance.
