Oregon lets a custodial parent settle a child's claim without a judge up to $25,000 net, with an affidavit and a protected deposit
Oregon handles a child's injury settlement under ORS 126.725, which sets the $25,000 line, the affidavit and where the money goes, and a separate rule on payments up to $10,000 a year in 126.700. The tolling rule is ORS 12.160 and the general deadline 12.110.
