Oregon Code § 18.870·Enacted ·Last updated March 01, 2026
Statute Text
Recording of writ.
Upon delivery of a writ of execution to the sheriff of any county, the judgment
creditor must record a copy of the writ certified to be true by the court
administrator or an abstract of the writ in the County Clerk Lien Record for
the county if the writ of execution or the accompanying instructions to the
sheriff require the sale of real property. A legal description and a street
address, if any, of the real property must be included in, or attached to, the
copy of the writ or the abstract. The recording of the writ or abstract in any
county in which a judgment lien does not exist under ORS 18.150 or 18.152, or
in a county in which a notice of pendency under ORS 93.740 has not been
previously recorded for the property to be sold, has the same effect as recording
a notice of pendency under ORS 93.740. [2005 c.542 §5; 2011 c.429 §2]
