Oregon does NOT require a bond to request a Trial by Written Declaration under ORS 153.070. Only pay now if you are admitting the infraction without contesting. Most Oregon courts accept payment through OJD CourtsEPay: the Springfield Municipal Court website.
Every extra week between the citation and your filing is another week the officer can forget. Oregon courts routinely grant first-time extension requests as a matter of course — you generally do not need a hardship reason.
