(1) This section applies to subpoenas issued under ORS 305.190 or 305.420 (4) to owners of industrial plants, as defined in ORS 308.408, for the production of books, papers, correspondence or any other documents to be used in a judicial proceeding that involves the determination of the value of a different industrial plant, for purposes of ad valorem property taxation. The purpose of this section is to provide a process by which the parties may limit the scope of a subpoena for the production of documents, if possible.
(2) Before any person or the Department of Revenue may issue a subpoena to which this section applies, the person or department shall give written notice to the person or agency to be subpoenaed that a subpoena will be issued no sooner than 60 days after the date the notice is received. The notice shall state the general nature of the documents desired to be produced and the purpose for which they will be used. The notice shall state that the person or agency to be subpoenaed may request an informal meeting with the person or department giving notice to identify the nature and form of documents the person or agency has and to verify the need for the documents desired to be produced.
(3) If the person or agency receiving a notice given under subsection (2) of this section requests an informal meeting as provided in the notice, the person or department giving notice shall meet with the person or agency before issuing the subpoena. If the parties can agree that only specific documents need to be produced, the subpoena may then be issued and shall be limited to those documents.
(4) If the person or agency receiving a notice under subsection (2) of this section does not request a meeting, or if the parties cannot agree on the specific documents to be produced, the person or department giving notice may issue the subpoena on or after the date specified in the notice.
(5) A person or agency given notice under subsection (2) of this section may not seek relief from compliance with a subpoena or for protection of documents to be produced until a subpoena has been issued.
