Granting a new trial for lack of substantial justice, CR 59(a)(9), should be rare, given the other broad grounds available under CR 59. See Kohfeld, 85 Wash.App. at 41, 931 P.2d 911. The weight of evidence and questions of credibility are the province of the finder of fact. See Hilltop Terrace Homeowner's Ass'n v. Island County, 126 Wash.2d 22, 34, 891 P.2d 29 (1995). The trial court plainly found Ms. White's version of events and supporting evidence persuasive and rejected Mr. Stalick's contradicting evidence. Thus, there was no error. CONCLUSION
