Hunnicutt v. Myers

Summary

The Oregon Supreme Court reviewed modified ballot titles for Initiative Petitions 145 and 149 (2002), concerning restrictions on adding prime or high-value farmland and prime forestland to urban growth boundaries. Because no party objected to the modified titles, the court certified them under ORS 250.085(9).

Holdings

1. When the Attorney General files modified ballot titles after referral under ORS 250.085(8) and no party objects within the period provided by ORS 250.085(9), the court certifies the modified ballot titles.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the Attorney General's modified ballot titles for Initiative Petitions 145 and 149 should be certified when no party objected to them within the statutory objection period.
