<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just a quick note to any/all of you that may occasionally field a question about “old” Oregon law, or put another way, superseded Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There was a recent announcement in the <a href="http://blog.oregonlegalresearch.com/">
Oregon Legal Research blog</a> about the availability of 1953-1993 & 1999-2011 ORS via the Oregon Legislature’s site. This makes running these down so much easier. Bravo!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do note, there still is a small gap for 1995 & 1997 which will eventually be closed.<o:p></o:p></p>
