Home Legal Documents Eviction Notice Oregon

Oregon Eviction Notice

Use our Oregon Eviction Notice to remove a tenant from your rental property.

Updated November 6, 2020 | Legally reviewed by Susan Chai, Esq.

If you’re a landlord seeking to evict a tenant, use an Oregon (OR) eviction notice to begin the process. Your eviction notice must be written according to Oregon state law, and give your tenant the legally required amount of time to respond or move out.

Prior to starting an eviction in Oregon, make sure you follow the laws under Chapter 90 and Chapter 105 of the Oregon Revised Statutes to ensure that your eviction is lawful.

What is the Eviction Process in Oregon?

There are seven steps to the eviction process in Oregon:

Step 1: Deliver the eviction notice

To begin the eviction process in Oregon, a landlord must give their tenant(s) notice that they intend to evict them. The notice must be delivered to the tenant personally, by certified mail or by posting it at the property.

Step 2: File the lawsuit

The landlord files a Summons and Complaint with the court if the notice expires and the tenant has still not complied with the notice demands. The court then assigns a hearing date.

Step 3: Serve the lawsuit

The tenant must be served the summons and complaint for residential eviction by the sheriff or a private process server. This informs the tenant of the eviction lawsuit, and when they need to appear in court in order to defend themselves against eviction.

Step 4: Attend the hearing

The landlord and tenant must appear in court. If the tenant challenges the eviction, mediation is offered. If both parties refuse mediation or fail to come to an agreement, the tenant must file an Answer to the lawsuit listing any defenses to the eviction. In the event both parties reach an agreement, the lawsuit is dismissed.

Step 5: Attend the trial

After the Answer is filed with the court, both parties attend the trial 15 days later. At trial, the judge hears the case of both the landlord and tenant and decides who wins.

Step 6: Obtaining a judgment

If the tenant fails to show up at either the first hearing or the trial, the landlord automatically wins the eviction lawsuit and the tenant must move out. If both parties meet in court and the landlord wins, the judge will issue a Judgment for possession of the property and the tenant must move out or be forcibly evicted.

If the tenant wins, they can stay in the rental property.

Step 7: Removal of the tenant

In cases where the landlord wins and the tenant still refuses to move out, the landlord can get a Notice of Restitution from the court and get the sheriff to forcibly remove the tenant.

Lastly, the court may issue a Writ of Execution for money the tenant owes the landlord.
