OR Rev Stat § 419C.133 (2015) What's This?
No youth under 12 years of age shall be placed in detention except pursuant to judicial review and written findings describing why it is in the best interests of the youth to be placed in detention. Such review may be ex parte, and the youth does not need to be present. However, a juvenile court judge or referee must determine that the youth is eligible for detention under ORS 419C.145 or 419C.156 and that appropriate alternative methods of controlling the youth’s behavior are unavailable. A youth detained under this section shall have the right to a hearing as provided in ORS 419C.153.
