file with the court a petition for a driving while under the influence of
intoxicants diversion agreement described in ORS 813.200. The petition:
(a) Must be filed
within 30 days after the date of the defendants first appearance on the
summons, unless a later filing date is allowed by the court upon a showing of
good cause. For purposes of this paragraph, the filing of a demurrer, a motion
to suppress or a motion for an omnibus hearing does not constitute good cause.

Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this subsection, may not be filed after entry
of a guilty plea or a no contest plea or after commencement of any trial on the
charge whether or not a new trial or retrial is ordered for any reason.
(c)
Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this subsection, may be filed up to 14 days
after the date the prosecuting attorney sends the laboratory test results of
the defendants urine or blood sample analysis to the defendants attorney or,
if the defendant is unrepresented, the defendant, if:
(A) The
accusatory instrument alleges that the defendant was driving under the
influence of intoxicants and alleges that at the time the conduct occurred the
defendant was under the influence of a controlled substance or an inhalant;
(B) The defendant
has not received notice of what the defendants blood alcohol content was at
the time the conduct occurred or if at the time the conduct occurred the
defendant had less than 0.08 percent by weight of alcohol in the blood; and
(C) A police
officer obtained a urine or blood sample from the defendant.
(2) The defendant
shall pay to the court, at the time of filing a petition for a driving while
under the influence of intoxicants diversion agreement, a filing fee
established under ORS 813.240. The court may make provision for payment of the
filing fee by the defendant on an installment basis. The court may waive all or
part of the filing fee in cases involving indigent defendants. The filing fee
paid to the court under this subsection shall be retained by the court if the
petition is allowed. The filing fee shall be distributed as provided by ORS
813.240.
(3) The defendant
shall pay to the agency or organization providing the screening interview, at
the time the petition is allowed, the fee required by ORS 813.240 (3).

otherwise provided under paragraph (b) of this subsection, the defendant shall
pay to the court any court-appointed attorney fees agreed to under ORS 813.200
(4)(i). Payments shall be made prior to the end of the diversion period on a
schedule determined by the court.

waive all or part of the court-appointed attorney fees agreed to under ORS
