§ 138.290 [Amended by 1981 c.178 §9; repealed by 1985 c.734 §20]

This rule no longer exists. It was changed in 1981 and then fully removed from Oregon law in 1985. Lawmakers repealed it, meaning it was taken off the books and no longer applies to any case.

If you're looking at older court documents or case law that mention this rule, keep in mind it hasn't been valid law for decades. Any legal question that might have involved this rule would now be handled under different, current statutes. If you're trying to research a specific legal issue, it's best to look at what replaced this rule or check the current version of Oregon's criminal procedure laws.
