Is a standpipe required for washing machine discharge?

On a second floor condo this washer/dryer combo was discharging into the bathroom trap. No air gap in the discharge line, just layed on the floor behind the washer and entered at the bottom of the vanity cabinet in the bathroom.

Didnt snap a picture of this one, [:-banghea
