EXPEDITED APPEAL OF CERTAIN PRETRIAL ORDERS IN CRIMINAL CASES
(1) This rule applies to a pretrial appeal under ORS 138.045(1)(a), (b), or (d) when
the defendant is charged with a felony and is in custody, and the trial court has dismissed or set
aside the accusatory instrument or suppressed evidence.[fn 1]
(2) In all cases subject to this rule:
(a) The case caption of any brief, motion, petition, or other paper filed with
the court shall include the words "EXPEDITED APPEAL UNDER ORS _____" and
identifying the statute authorizing the expedited appeal.
(b) Appellant's opening brief shall be due 35 days after the transcript settles.
Failure to file the opening brief within the prescribed time will result in automatic

opening brief is served and filed. If respondent fails to file an answering brief within the
prescribed time, the appeal will be submitted on appellant's opening brief and oral

(d) Absent extraordinary circumstances, the court will not grant an extension
of time or reschedule oral argument.
(e) A motion made before oral argument will not toll the time for transmitting
the record, filing briefs, or hearing oral argument.
