These are the lower level offenses that impact quality of life, and it is in the interest of making Lane County the best place to live, work and play that we appropriately intervene in criminal conduct.

[LaneCountyDA @LaneCountyDA]

As my office is headed to full staffing, we are in the process of notifying all of our 11 Lane County law enforcement agencies that there is no longer a “no file” list of charges. Every case for which there is sufficient, admissible evidence will be filed starting now.

[LaneCountyDA @LaneCountyDA]

Because referrals from law enforcement remain down, I don’t expect this will have a significant impact on the courts or indigent defense until filings rise or possession of drugs is recriminalized.
