How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that post-conviction order of forfeiture of certain property was appealable as an order affecting a substantial right made after judgment
- noting that the action for seiz- ing property that caused death, a “deodand,” was followed in English common law but was not carried over to the law of the United States
- holding defendant was entitled to jury trial on forfeiture when statute required findings that vehicle was employed in transportation or concealment of contraband and that the use was by or with knowledge of the owner
- distinguishing between contraband per se and derivative contraband, with the latter afforded greater legal protection than property which is inherently injurious to public welfare
- inclusion of “forfeiture” in ORS 137.010(8) “indicates that the legislature viewed the remedy of forfeiture as being a civil penalty”
- “Criminal action means an action at law by means of which a person is accused and tried for the commission of an offense.
