Umatilla Supp. L. R. 13.025
As amended through January 17, 2024
If the first appearance of a defendant is not an answer, but is a motion directed to the complaint or a dispositive motion, the motion shall be decided before the case is referred to arbitration. No case shall be referred to arbitration until all parties have appeared or have had a judgment of default entered against them.
