ORS 60.781
Court-ordered inspection
(1)
If a corporation does not allow a shareholder who complies with ORS 60.774 (Inspection of records by shareholders) (1) to inspect and copy any records required by that subsection to be available for inspection, the circuit court of the county where the corporation’s principal office is located, or, if the principal office is not in this state, where its registered office is or was last located, may summarily order inspection and copying of the records demanded at the corporation’s expense upon application of the shareholder.(2)
If a corporation does not within a reasonable time allow a shareholder to inspect and copy any other record, the shareholder who complies with ORS 60.774 (Inspection of records by shareholders) (2) and (3) may apply to the circuit court in the county where the corporation’s principal office is located, or, if the principal office is not in this state, where its registered office is or was last located, for an order to permit inspection and copying of the records demanded.(3)
If the court orders inspection and copying of the records demanded, it shall also order the corporation to pay the shareholder’s costs, including reasonable counsel fees, incurred to obtain the order unless the corporation proves that it refused inspection in good faith because it had a reasonable basis for doubt about the right of the shareholder to inspect the records demanded.(4)
If the court orders inspection and copying of the records demanded, it may impose reasonable restrictions on the use or distribution of the records by the demanding shareholder.(5)
No order shall be issued under this section without notice to the corporation at least five days in advance of the time specified for the hearing unless a different period is fixed by the court. The shareholder’s request shall be set for hearing at the earliest possible time and shall take precedence over all matters, except matters of the same character and hearing on preliminary injunctions under ORCP 79 B(3).
