The Oregon Supreme Court in Salem. A unanimous ruling Thursday in State v. Roberts represents the latest development in Oregon’s long-running challenge to ensure people who are accused of crimes have legal representation.

The Oregon Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that the state must ultimately dismiss criminal charges against people who don’t get a court-appointed attorney within two months for misdemeanors and three months for felonies.
