2 Citing cases

  1. State v. Macbale

    353 Or. 789 (Or. 2013)   Cited 4 times
    Examining "a more complete look at the circumstances surrounding the creation of Article I, section 10" to help determine which types of court proceedings the framers would have considered to be properly closed to the public

    Rather, in prohibiting secret courts and requiring that justice be administered openly, that part of Article I, section 10, prescribes how government must ensure fairness in the administration of justice. Oregonian Publishing Co. v. O'Leary, 303 Or. 297, 301–02, 736 P.2d 173 (1987). In Doe v. Corp. of Presiding Bishop, 352 Or. 77, 280 P.3d 377 (2012), this court recently applied its three-step interpretive paradigm for original constitutional provisions to the open courts clause to determine whether the press was entitled to the release of certain trial exhibits after the conclusion of a trial.

  2. Oregon Newspaper Publishers v. Dept. of Corrections

    156 Or. App. 30 (Or. Ct. App. 1998)   Cited 2 times

    The phrase "justice shall be administered" has been interpreted by the Supreme Court to be limited to "adjudications." In Oregonian Publishing Co. v. O'Leary, 303 Or. 297, 303, 736 P.2d 173 (1987), the court explained that "[t]he primary limitation on the scope of section 10 is that it is directed only at adjudications. To the extent that adjudications are not involved, the administration of justice is not governed by it.
