ORS § 90 § 90.401
Remedies available to landlord.
Operative Text
Except as provided in this chapter: (1) A landlord may pursue any one or more of the remedies set forth in ORS 90.392, 90.394, 90.396, 90.398, 90.403 and 90.405, simultaneously or sequentially. (2) In addition to the remedies provided in ORS 90.392, 90.394, 90.396 and 90.398, a landlord may recover damages and obtain injunctive relief for any noncompliance by the tenant with the rental agreement or ORS 90.325 or 90.740.
Oregon Revised Statutes § 90.401 establishes that landlords are not limited to a single legal remedy when a tenant fails to comply with a rental agreement or certain statutory obligations. Under this provision, a landlord may pursue multiple remedies—such as termination, damages, or injunctive relief—either at the same time or one after another. The rule also specifically allows landlords to seek monetary damages and court orders requiring or prohibiting certain conduct when a tenant violates the rental agreement or the tenant-obligation statutes referenced in ORS 90.325 and 90.740.
Plain English — not legal advice.
ORS § 90.401 gives property owners and managers flexibility in how they respond to tenant noncompliance by allowing the simultaneous or sequential use of remedies outlined in ORS 90.392, 90.394, 90.396, 90.398, 90.403, and 90.405. Compliant operators generally document lease violations thoroughly and understand which statutory remedies apply to the specific type of noncompliance before proceeding. When a tenant's conduct violates the rental agreement or ORS 90.325 or 90.740, operators may also pursue civil damages and injunctive relief in addition to other available remedies under this section.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
ORS § 90.401 is important for tenants to understand because it means a landlord may pursue more than one legal remedy simultaneously or in sequence for an alleged lease violation or statutory noncompliance. This provision allows landlords to seek both monetary damages and injunctive relief on top of other remedies, which can broaden the scope of a legal action a tenant may face. Tenants who receive notices or legal filings related to this provision may benefit from reviewing their rights under ORS 90.325 and 90.740 and consulting a tenant-rights organization or legal aid office familiar with Oregon landlord-tenant law.
