Section 153.770 - Electronic filing of citation for offenses subject to written uniform citation(1) Notwithstanding ORS 1.525, 153.045, 221.333 and 810.425, a law enforcement officer or a person authorized to enforce parking ordinance violations, following procedures established by court rule, may file a citation with the court by electronic means, without an actual signature of the officer, in lieu of using a written uniform citation. A citation filed under this section may be of a different size or format than a uniform citation adopted by the Supreme Court under ORS 1.525. Law enforcement officers who file citations under this section will be deemed to certify to the complaint and will continue to have the same rights, responsibilities and liabilities in relation to those citations as to citations with complaints that are certified by an actual signature.(2) A court may allow electronic filing of citations as described under subsection (1) of this section. Procedures established to allow electronic filing of citations under this section shall be established by court rule and shall include procedures necessary to ensure that:(a) The information electronically filed includes all information required on a uniform citation adopted by the Supreme Court under ORS 1.525, or as required under ORS 221.333 and 810.425 for parking ordinance violations. However, an electronically filed citation containing all required information, but of a different size or format than a uniform citation adopted by the Supreme Court under ORS 1.525, shall not be prohibited by or found in violation of a rule established under this subsection.(b) The citation filed electronically is verifiable as being filed by a specific law enforcement officer or, for parking ordinance violations, by a person authorized to enforce parking ordinance violations.(c) Members of the public can obtain copies of and review citations that are electronically filed and maintained under this section in the same manner as for citations filed on paper.Amended by 2015 Ch. 13,§ 2, eff. 3/18/2015.1995 c.781 §53; 1999 c.1051 §129; 2001 c.911 §2
