A federal judge in Oregon on Thursday ordered sheriffs across the state to release detained persons if they do not have legal representation one week after their first court appearance.

Those ordered released from jail can be placed on conditions while their cases are pending, McShane wrote. The order will go into effect on Nov. 16 and affects those currently in custody, along with those who will be arrested in the future. There are currently 135 jailed individuals in Oregon who are awaiting legal representation.

“Worse still, they sometimes plead guilty just to be released,” the judge wrote. “Taken together, these practices highlight the need for swift appointment of counsel to ensure minimum protections for incarcerated defendants.”
