133.360 Arrests on warrant or order transmitted by telegraph. Whenever any person has been indicted or accused on oath of any public offense, or thereof convicted, and a warrant of arrest has been issued, the magistrate issuing the warrant, or any judge of the Supreme Court, or of the Court of Appeals, or of a circuit or county court, may indorse thereon an order signed by the magistrate or judge authorizing the service thereof by telegraph. Thereupon the warrant and order may be sent by telegraph to any marshal, sheriff, constable or police officer and on receipt of the telegraphic copy thereof, as defined in ORS 165.840, by any such officer, the officer shall have the same authority and be under the same obligations to arrest, take into custody and detain the person as if the original warrant of arrest with the proper direction for its service duly indorsed thereon had been placed in the hands of the officer.

Prior to indictment or conviction, no such order shall be made by any officer unless in the judgment of the officer there is probable cause to believe the accused person guilty of the offense charged, but the making of such order by any officer is prima facie evidence of the regularity thereof and of all proceedings prior thereto. The original warrant and order, or a copy thereof certified by the officer making the order, shall be preserved in the telegraph office from which the same is sent and in telegraphing the same, the original or the certified copy may be used.

(2) If there is no substantial question whether the things should be returned to the person from whose possession they were seized, they must be returned to the person upon the release of the defendant from custody.
(3) Instead of conducting the hearing provided for in subsection (1)(b) of this section and returning or restoring the property, the court in its discretion, may leave the several claimants to appropriate civil process for the determination of the claims. [1973 c.836 §113]

133.725 [Formerly 141.720; repealed by 1979 c.716 §3 (133.724 enacted in lieu of 133.725)]
133.726 Interception of oral communication without order; order for interception of oral communication; application; grounds for issuance; contents of order; penalties. (1) Notwithstanding ORS 133.724, under the circumstances described in this section, a law enforcement officer is authorized to intercept an oral communication to which the officer or someone under the direct supervision of the officer is a party, without obtaining an order for the interception of a wire, electronic or oral communication under ORS 133.724.
(2) For purposes of this section and ORS 133.736, a person is a party to an oral communication if the oral communication is made in the person’s immediate presence and is audible to the person regardless of whether the communication is specifically directed to the person.
(3) An ex parte order for intercepting an oral communication in any county of this state under this section may be issued by any judge as defined in ORS 133.525 upon written application made upon oath or affirmation of the district attorney or a deputy district attorney authorized by the district attorney for the county in which the order is sought or upon the oath or affirmation of any peace officer as defined in ORS 133.005. The application shall include:
(b) A statement demonstrating that there is probable cause to believe that a person whose oral communication is to be intercepted is engaged in committing, has committed or is about to commit a particular felony, or a misdemeanor under ORS 167.007, and that intercepting the oral communication will yield evidence thereof; and
(a) There is probable cause to believe that a person is engaged in committing, has committed or is about to commit a particular felony, or a misdemeanor under ORS 167.007; and
(f) A statement that the order authorizes only the interception of an oral communication to which a law enforcement officer or someone under the direct supervision of a law enforcement officer is a party.
(7) An order under ORS 133.724 or this section is not required when a law enforcement officer intercepts an oral communication to which the officer or someone under the direct supervision of the officer is a party if the oral communication is made by a person whom the officer has probable cause to believe has committed, is engaged in committing or is about to commit:
(a) A crime punishable as a felony under ORS 475.992 or 475.995 or as a misdemeanor under ORS 167.007; or
(b) Any other crime punishable as a felony if the circumstances at the time the oral communication is intercepted are of such exigency that it would be unreasonable to obtain a court order under ORS 133.724 or this section.
(8) A law enforcement officer who intercepts an oral communication pursuant to this section may not intentionally fail to record and preserve the oral communication in its entirety. A law enforcement officer, or a person under the direct supervision of the officer, who is authorized under this section to intercept an oral communication is not required to exclude from the interception an oral communication made by a person for whom probable cause does not exist if the officer or person under the officer’s direct supervision is a party to the oral communication.
(a) To a superior officer or other official with whom the law enforcement officer is cooperating in the enforcement of laws creating felonies;
(12) Violation of subsection (9) of this section is a Class A misdemeanor. [1983 c.824 §8; 1995 c.224 §2; 2001 c.385 §2]

The contents of any wire, electronic or oral communication intercepted in accordance with the provisions of ORS 133.724 shall, if possible, be recorded on tape or wire or other comparable device. The recording of the contents of any wire, electronic or oral communication under this section shall be done in such way as will protect the recording from editing or other alterations. Immediately upon the expiration of the period of the order issued under ORS 133.724, or extensions thereof, such recordings shall be made available to the judge issuing such order and sealed under the direction of the judge. Custody of the recordings shall be wherever the judge orders. They shall not be destroyed before the expiration of the minimum retention period established by the State Court Administrator under ORS 8.125. Duplicate recordings may be made for use or disclosure pursuant to the provisions of ORS 133.737 (1) and (2) for investigations. The presence of the seal provided for by this section, or a satisfactory explanation for the absence thereof, shall be a prerequisite for the use or disclosure of the contents of any wire, electronic or oral communication or evidence derived therefrom under ORS 133.737 (3).

(b) The date of the entry and the period of authorized, approved or disapproved interception, or the denial of the application; and
(c) The fact that during the period wire, electronic or oral communications were or were not intercepted.
(2) The judge, upon the filing of a motion, may in the judge’s discretion make available to such person or the person’s counsel for inspection such portions of the intercepted communications, applications and orders as the judge determines to be in the interest of justice. On an ex parte showing of good cause to a judge of the circuit court, the serving of the inventory required by this section may be postponed. [1979 c.716 §8; 1989 c.983 §9]
133.733 Procedure for introduction as evidence. The contents of any wire, electronic or oral communication intercepted under ORS 133.724, or evidence derived therefrom, shall not be received in evidence or otherwise disclosed in any trial, hearing or other proceeding in any court of this state unless each party, not less than 10 days before the trial, hearing or proceeding, has been furnished with a copy of the court order, and accompanying application, under which the interception was authorized or approved. This 10-day period may be waived by the judge if the judge finds that it was not possible to furnish the party with the above information 10 days before the trial, hearing or proceeding and that the party will not be prejudiced by the delay in receiving such information. [1979 c.716 §9; 1989 c.983 §10]
133.735 Suppression of intercepted communications; procedure; grounds; appeal. (1) Any aggrieved person in any trial, hearing or proceeding in or before any court, department, officer, agency, regulatory body or other authority of the state, or a political subdivision thereof, may move to suppress the contents of any wire, electronic or oral communication intercepted under ORS 133.724, or evidence derived therefrom, on the grounds that:
(2) Such motion shall be made before the trial, hearing or proceeding unless there was no opportunity to make such motion or the person was not aware of the grounds of the motion. If the motion is granted, the contents of the intercepted wire, electronic or oral communication, or evidence derived therefrom, shall be treated as having been unlawfully obtained. The judge, upon the filing of such motion by the aggrieved person, may in the judge’s discretion make available to the aggrieved person or the person’s counsel for inspection such portions of the intercepted communications or evidence derived therefrom as the judge determines to be in the interests of justice.
133.736 Motion to suppress intercepted oral communication; right of state to appeal. (1) Any aggrieved person, as defined in ORS 133.721, in any trial, hearing or proceeding in or before any court, department, officer, agency, regulatory body or other authority of the state, or a political subdivision thereof, may move to suppress recordings of any oral communication intercepted in violation of ORS 133.726 or testimony or other evidence derived solely from the unlawful interception.
(2) Such motion shall be made before the trial, hearing or proceeding unless there was no opportunity to make such motion or the person was not aware of the grounds of the motion. If the motion is granted, the judge, upon the filing of such motion by the aggrieved person, may in the judge’s discretion make available to the aggrieved person or the person’s counsel for inspection such portions of the intercepted communications or evidence derived therefrom as the judge determines to be in the interests of justice.
(3) In addition to any other right to appeal, the state shall have the right to appeal from an order granting a motion to suppress under subsection (1) of this section. [1983 c.824 §5; 2001 c.385 §3]

(3) Nothing in ORS 41.910, 133.721 to 133.739 and 133.992 is intended to abrogate any other private civil remedy for invasion of privacy.
