| dc.description.abstract | Eviction is a predatory practice that primarily targets low-income and marginalized populations. For some tenants, obtaining a lawyer and going to court for a civil justice issue requires subjecting themselves to an institution that they do not understand. Past experience with and connotation of the criminal justice system leaves tenants, particularly tenants from marginalized backgrounds, hesitant to pursue legal assistance and remedies in civil court. The Oregon Rules of Civil Procedure are an underutilized tool to improve access to justice in eviction court proceedings. | |
