Oregon Code § 115.070·Enacted ·Last updated March 01, 2026
Statute Text
Claims
on debts reduced to judgments.
If a judgment was entered on a claim prior to the death of the decedent but was
not a lien against property of the estate on the date of the decedents death,
the claim shall be presented in the same manner as if no judgment had been
entered, and a copy of the judgment shall be attached to the claim. A claim for
which a judgment was entered prior to the death of the decedent may be
disallowed only if the judgment was void or voidable, or if the judgment could
have been set aside on the date of the decedents death, or if the claim is not
presented within the time required by ORS 115.005. If the judgment was a lien
against property of the estate on the date of the decedents death it shall be
treated as a claim on a debt due for which the creditor holds security under
ORS 115.065. In all other respects a claim that has been reduced to judgment
shall have the same priority under ORS 115.125 as the claim would have had were
it not reduced to judgment. [1989 c.229 §11; 2017 c.169 §29]
