Clackamas County Circuit Court Judge Eve L. Miller released a decision this morning granting the petition filed by the family Jim Filipetti to have the doe named Snowball, currently in the custody of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, returned to Filipetti.
According to a statement released by the office of Filipetti's attorney Geordie Duckler, the ODFW will have to return the deer within 48 hours once the order is released. Duckler's office will be responsible for drafting the order and the ODFW will have three business days to object to any content within it.
At the latest, Duckler's office said, the doe would have to be returned by Friday, Nov. 2.
ODFW spokesperson Meg Kenagy said the agency will be meeting with attorneys from the Oregon Department of Justice today in order to develop a response.
"Right now we're just considering the legal options available," she said.
