Oregon how much time does the “respondent” get to file papers

Oregon law gives a respondent 30 days after service or the petition to file a response with the court. If the respondent does not file a response, the petitioner may be granted everything he or she asked for in the petition. If the respondent files a response the court may set the case for trial, mediation, or a settlement conference. This can depend on the court’s procedures.
