§ 136.710 [Amended by 1973 c.836 §248; renumbered 136.490]

This rule number no longer contains active content. It was changed by a law passed in 1973 and then given a new number, 136.490. If you're looking for the current rule on this topic, you'll need to check ORS 136.490 instead.

This kind of renumbering happens fairly often in Oregon law. Lawmakers sometimes reorganize sections of the law to keep related topics grouped together or to make the numbering system more logical. When that happens, the old rule number stays on the books as a placeholder, showing where the content moved to, but it doesn't have any legal effect on its own anymore.

If you're researching a case or trying to understand your rights, always make sure you're looking at the current, active version of a rule. Checking ORS 136.490 will give you the actual rule that applies today.
