Oregon Judicial Department Appellate Court Opinions (7731 words)
Dollarhide, 300 Or 490, 495-96, 714 P2d 220 (1986), this court explained that, when a defendant is charged under a criminal law for which only an allegedly invalid penalty is provided, the defendant may challenge that penalty provision by a pretrial demurrer because, without a valid penalty, the charge cannot stand.
It is clear from the publicity that surrounded defendant's case, and particularly from the publicity that took place in Douglas County, that the murder of Marion Carl was widely publicized and that his death was a source of sorrow and profound loss for many.
We note, as did the court in Dollarhide, that the determination that the penalty provision of a statute is invalid does not require necessarily the dismissal of the complaint.
