This summary is not the rule. The rule text controls.
This rule no longer exists. Oregon lawmakers repealed it back in 1973, meaning it was officially removed from the law books and no longer has any legal effect.
If you're looking at older documents or cases that reference Rule 131.320, it may have covered a topic that was later moved to a different rule number, replaced with new language, or eliminated entirely because it was no longer needed. To understand what this rule used to say or where its subject matter went, you would need to check the 1973 legislative changes (chapter 836) or look at current Oregon criminal procedure rules on the same general topic.
Since this rule is no longer active law, it doesn't affect any current criminal case or legal proceeding. If someone points to Rule 131.320 in a modern legal situation, it's worth double checking that they mean current law, since this particular rule hasn't applied for decades.
