WHAT HAPPENS TO RIDERS WHO IGNORE EXCLUSION ORDERS?

I've heard so many instances of people ignoring exclusion and fare evasion orders I decided to do some investigating in regards to penalties for these repeat offenders. I got an attorney to look into this for me.

I have noticed multiple repeat offenders that are supposedly excluded from the transit system in Portland Oregon get caught on the system during their exclusion. I can't find the penalty for ignoring transit fines and interdiction commands. Are those penalties listed somewhere? Can you serve real time in jail for ignoring transit fines and exclusions?

Assuming someone has been validly excluded by Trimet (including service of a notice of exclusion with a right to a hearing to challenge the exclusion), a person could potentially be charged with the crime of trespass, which is a misdemeanor. Depending on criminal history, the circumstances of the particular case, and bad luck, someone could be sentenced to serve some jail time for trespass (although most trespass cases in Portland do not involve jail time). The trespass statutes are in Oregon Revised Statutes chapter 164, if you want more information on this.
Good luck!
