Copy as parenthetical citation

(a) Consents to the disposition;

(b) Has not previously been convicted of any offense in any jurisdiction;

(c) Has not been placed on probation under ORS 475.245;

(d) Has not completed a diversion under ORS 135.881 to 135.901; and

(e) Agrees to pay a fee equal to $100. The person must pay the amount within 90 days of imposition unless the court allows payment at a later time.

(2) A district attorney may submit a motion under subsection (1) of this section if, after considering the factors listed in subsection (3) of this section, the district attorney finds that disposition under this section would be in the interests of justice and of benefit to the person and the community.

(3) In determining whether disposition under this section is in the interests of justice and of benefit to the person and the community, the district attorney shall consider at least the following factors:

(a) The nature of the offense. However, the offense must not have involved injury to another person.

(b) Any special characteristics or difficulties of the person.

(c) Whether there is a probability that the person will cooperate with and benefit from alternative treatment.

(d) Whether an available program is appropriate to the needs of the person.

(e) The impact of the disposition upon the community.

(f) Recommendations, if any, of the involved law enforcement agency.

(g) Recommendations, if any, of the victim.

(h) Provisions for restitution.

(i) Any mitigating circumstances.

(4) Upon violation of a term or condition of probation, the court may enter an adjudication of guilt and proceed as otherwise provided. Upon the person’s fulfillment of the terms and conditions of probation, the court shall discharge the person and dismiss the proceedings against the person. A discharge and dismissal under this section is without adjudication of guilt and is not a conviction for purposes of disqualifications or disabilities imposed by law upon conviction of a crime. A person may be discharged and have proceedings dismissed only once under this section.

(5) Subsections (1) to (4) of this section do not affect any domestic violence sentencing programs. [1999 c.819 §§1,2; 2011 c.597 §124]

Note: 137.533 was enacted into law by the Legislative Assembly but was not added to or made a part of ORS chapter 137 or any series therein by legislative action. See Preface to Oregon Revised Statutes for further explanation.
