  ' (6) A memorandum, report, record, or data compilation, in any
form, of acts, events, conditions, opinions, or diagnoses, made

authorizes the recording of documents of that kind in that
office.
  ' (15) A statement contained in a document purporting to

  ' (18a)(a) A complaint of sexual misconduct, complaint of abuse
as defined in ORS 107.705 or 419B.005, complaint of abuse of an
elderly person, as those terms are defined in ORS 124.050, or a
complaint relating to a violation of ORS 163.205 or 164.015 in
which a person 65 years of age or older is the victim, made by
the witness after the commission of the alleged misconduct or
abuse at issue. Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this
subsection, such evidence must be confined to the fact that the
complaint was made.
  ' (b) A statement made by a person concerning an act of abuse
as defined in ORS 107.705 or 419B.005, a statement made by a
person concerning an act of abuse of an elderly person, as those
terms are defined in ORS 124.050, or a statement made by a person
concerning a violation of ORS 163.205 or 164.015 in which a
person 65 years of age or older is the victim, is not excluded by
ORS 40.455 if the declarant either testifies at the proceeding
and is subject to cross-examination, or is unavailable as a
witness but was chronologically or mentally under 12 years of age
when the statement was made or was 65 years of age or older when
the statement was made. However, if a declarant is unavailable,
the statement may be admitted in evidence only if the proponent
establishes that the time, content and circumstances of the
statement provide indicia of reliability, and in a criminal trial
that there is corroborative evidence of the act of abuse and of
the alleged perpetrator's opportunity to participate in the
conduct and that the statement possesses indicia of reliability
as is constitutionally required to be admitted. No statement may
be admitted under this paragraph unless the proponent of the
statement makes known to the adverse party the proponent's
intention to offer the statement and the particulars of the
statement no later than 15 days before trial, except for good
cause shown. For purposes of this paragraph, in addition to those
situations described in ORS 40.465 (1), the declarant shall be
considered 'unavailable' if the declarant has a substantial lack
of memory of the subject matter of the statement, is presently
incompetent to testify, is unable to communicate about the abuse
or sexual conduct because of fear or other similar reason or is
substantially likely, as established by expert testimony, to
suffer lasting severe emotional trauma from testifying. Unless
otherwise agreed by the parties, the court shall examine the
declarant in chambers and on the record or outside the presence
of the jury and on the record. The examination shall be conducted
immediately prior to the commencement of the trial in the
presence of the attorney and the legal guardian or other suitable
person as designated by the court. If the declarant is found to
be unavailable, the court shall then determine the admissibility
of the evidence. The determinations shall be appealable under ORS
138.060 (1)(c) or (2)(a). The purpose of the examination shall be
to aid the court in making its findings regarding the
availability of the declarant as a witness and the reliability of
the statement of the declarant. In determining whether a
statement possesses indicia of reliability under this paragraph,
the court may consider, but is not limited to, the following
factors:
  ' (A) The personal knowledge of the declarant of the event;
  ' (B) The age and maturity of the declarant or extent of
disability if the declarant is a person with developmental
disabilities;
  ' (C) Certainty that the statement was made, including the
credibility of the person testifying about the statement and any
motive the person may have to falsify or distort the statement;
  ' (D) Any apparent motive the declarant may have to falsify or
distort the event, including bias, corruption or coercion;
  ' (E) The timing of the statement of the declarant;
  ' (F) Whether more than one person heard the statement;
  ' (G) Whether the declarant was suffering pain or distress when
making the statement;
  ' (H) Whether the declarant's young age or disability makes it
unlikely that the declarant fabricated a statement that
represents a graphic, detailed account beyond the knowledge and
experience of the declarant;
  ' (I) Whether the statement has internal consistency or
coherence and uses terminology appropriate to the declarant's age
or to the extent of the declarant's disability if the declarant
is a person with developmental disabilities;
  ' (J) Whether the statement is spontaneous or directly
responsive to questions; and
  ' (K) Whether the statement was elicited by leading questions.
  ' (c) This subsection applies to all civil, criminal and
juvenile proceedings.
  ' (d) This subsection applies to a child declarant, a declarant
who is an elderly person as defined in ORS 124.050 or an adult
declarant with developmental disabilities. For the purposes of
this subsection, 'developmental disabilities' means any
disability attributable to mental retardation, autism, cerebral
palsy, epilepsy or other disabling neurological condition that
requires training or support similar to that required by persons
with mental retardation, if either of the following apply:
  ' (A) The disability originates before the person attains 22
years of age, or if the disability is attributable to mental
retardation the condition is manifested before the person attains
18 years of age, the disability can be expected to continue
indefinitely, and the disability constitutes a substantial
handicap to the ability of the person to function in society.
  ' (B) The disability results in a significant subaverage
general intellectual functioning with concurrent deficits in
adaptive behavior that are manifested during the developmental
period.
  ' (19) Reputation among members of a person's family by blood,
adoption or marriage, or among a person's associates, or in the
community, concerning a person's birth, adoption, marriage,
divorce, death, legitimacy, relationship by blood or adoption or
marriage, ancestry, or other similar fact of a person's personal
or family history.
  ' (20) Reputation in a community, arising before the
controversy, as to boundaries of or customs affecting lands in
the community, and reputation as to events of general history
important to the community or state or nation in which located.
  ' (21) Reputation of a person's character among associates of
the person or in the community.
  ' (22) Evidence of a final judgment, entered after a trial or
upon a plea of guilty, but not upon a plea of no contest,
adjudging a person guilty of a crime other than a traffic
offense, to prove any fact essential to sustain the judgment, but
not including, when offered by the government in a criminal
prosecution for purposes other than impeachment, judgments
against persons other than the accused. The pendency of an appeal
may be shown but does not affect admissibility.
  ' (23) Judgments as proof of matters of personal, family or
general history, or boundaries, essential to the judgment, if the
same would be provable by evidence of reputation.
  ' (24) Notwithstanding the limits contained in subsection (18a)
of this section, in any proceeding in which a child under 12
years of age at the time of trial, or a person with developmental
disabilities as described in subsection (18a)(d) of this section,
may be called as a witness to testify concerning an act of abuse,
as defined in ORS 419B.005, or sexual conduct performed with or
on the child or person with developmental disabilities by
another, the testimony of the child or person with developmental
disabilities taken by contemporaneous examination and
cross-examination in another place under the supervision of the
trial judge and communicated to the courtroom by closed-circuit
television or other audiovisual means. Testimony will be allowed
as provided in this subsection only if the court finds that there
is a substantial likelihood, established by expert testimony,
that the child or person with developmental disabilities will
suffer severe emotional or psychological harm if required to
testify in open court. If the court makes such a finding, the
court, on motion of a party, the child, the person with
developmental disabilities or the court in a civil proceeding, or
on motion of the district attorney, the child or the person with
developmental disabilities in a criminal or juvenile proceeding,
may order that the testimony of the child or the person with
developmental disabilities be taken as described in this
subsection. Only the judge, the attorneys for the parties, the
parties, individuals necessary to operate the equipment and any
individual the court finds would contribute to the welfare and
well-being of the child or person with developmental disabilities
may be present during the testimony of the child or person with
developmental disabilities.

  ' (c) Notwithstanding any statute or rule to the contrary, in
any criminal case in which documents are introduced under the
provisions of this subsection, the defendant may subpoena the
  { - analyst, as defined in ORS 475.235 (6), or other - }
person that generated or keeps the original document for the
purpose of testifying at the preliminary hearing and trial of the
issue.  Except as provided in ORS 44.550 to 44.566, no charge
shall be made to the defendant for the appearance of the
 { - analyst or other - } person.
  ' (26)(a) A statement that purports to narrate, describe,
report or explain an incident of domestic violence, as defined in
ORS 135.230, made by a victim of the domestic violence within 24
hours after the incident occurred, if the statement:
  ' (A) Was recorded, either electronically or in writing, or was
made to a peace officer as defined in ORS 161.015, corrections
officer, youth correction officer, parole and probation officer,
emergency medical technician or firefighter; and
  ' (B) Has sufficient indicia of reliability.
  ' (b) In determining whether a statement has sufficient indicia
of reliability under paragraph (a) of this subsection, the court
shall consider all circumstances surrounding the statement.  The
court may consider, but is not limited to, the following factors
in determining whether a statement has sufficient indicia of
reliability:
  ' (A) The personal knowledge of the declarant.
  ' (B) Whether the statement is corroborated by evidence other
than statements that are subject to admission only pursuant to
this subsection.
  ' (C) The timing of the statement.
  ' (D) Whether the statement was elicited by leading questions.
  ' (E) Subsequent statements made by the declarant.  Recantation
by a declarant is not sufficient reason for denying admission of
a statement under this subsection in the absence of other factors
indicating unreliability.
  ' (27) A report prepared by a forensic scientist that contains
the results of a presumptive test conducted by the forensic
scientist as described in ORS 475.235, if the forensic scientist
attests that the report accurately reflects the results of the

  ' (28)(a) A statement not specifically covered by any of the
foregoing exceptions but having equivalent circumstantial
guarantees of trustworthiness, if the court determines that:
  ' (A) The statement is relevant;
  ' (B) The statement is more probative on the point for which it
is offered than any other evidence that the proponent can procure
through reasonable efforts; and
  ' (C) The general purposes of the Oregon Evidence Code and the
interests of justice will best be served by admission of the
statement into evidence.
  ' (b) A statement may not be admitted under this subsection
unless the proponent of it makes known to the adverse party the
intention to offer the statement and the particulars of it,
including the name and address of the declarant, sufficiently in
advance of the trial or hearing, or as soon as practicable after
it becomes apparent that such statement is probative of the
issues at hand, to provide the adverse party with a fair
opportunity to prepare to meet it.
