WHEREAS: 
This PJO creates the process for the Umatilla  County Circuit Court Truancy Specialty

a collaboration of stakeholders to support th e School Districts in application of ORS 
339.010, 339.020, 339.030, 3 39.090, utilizing ORS 163.577(1)(c)(7) as that statute

children under 15 years of age. 
THEREFORE:  
1. The Court hereby establishes the Umatilla County Truancy Court Program as a 
Specialty Court under ORS 137.680 using existing statutory processes. 
2. All Circuit Court Judges are assigned as  Family Law Judges, but the primary 
Family Law Courtroom(s) will have the pr imary responsibility for arraignment 
and processing of cases under the Truancy Court Operations Manual. 
3. Once a Responsible Adult (RA) pleads gu ilty or no contest, and consents to 
participating in the Parenting Effectiveness Program (PEP), the court process will 
resemble a treatment court model with a multi-disciplinary approach addressing 
the Responsible Adult’s obligation to s upervise the child(ren)/student(s) by 
having them attend school as required with the schools and other support 
functions assisting the student.
