Chapter 430 — Mental and Behavioral Health Treatment; Developmental Disabilities
ORS 430.738 Privileges not applicable to abuse proceedings
In the case of abuse of an adult, the privileges created in ORS 40.230 to 40.255, including the psychotherapist-patient privilege, the physician-patient privilege, the privileges extended to nurses, to staff members of schools and to regulated social workers and the spousal privilege, shall not be a ground for excluding evidence regarding an adult’s abuse, or the cause thereof, in any judicial proceeding resulting from a report made pursuant to ORS 430.735 to 430.765.
As used in this section, “abuse” and “adult” have the meanings given those terms in ORS 430.735.
Note: 430.738 was enacted into law by the Legislative
Assembly but was not added to or made a part of ORS chapter 430 or any series therein by legislative action. See Preface to Oregon Revised Statutes for further explanation.
