Juvenile Code: General Provisions and Definitions

ORS 419A.190
Effect of adjudicatory hearing or admission

Except as provided in ORS 153.108 (Effect of judgment) (1), proceedings in adult criminal court and other juvenile court adjudicatory proceedings based on an act alleged in a petition or citation to have been committed by a child, ward, youth or adjudicated youth or allegations arising out of the same conduct are barred when the juvenile court judge or referee has begun taking evidence in an adjudicatory hearing or has accepted a child, ward, youth or adjudicated youth’s admission or answer of no contest to the allegations of the petition or citation. This section does not prevent appeal of any preadjudicatory order of the court that could be appealed in a criminal case, including, but not limited to, an order suppressing evidence. [1993 c.33 §46; 1999 c.1051 §134; 2003 c.396 §27; 2021 c.489 §45]
