Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Oregon

Defendants' counsel has been evasive and non-responsive to my requests for production using all the boilerplate objections. The attorney actually gathered together a hodgepodge of 43 unrelated, photocopied documents, stapled them together with no categorization and said this is all I've got. Not a single page was responsive to any of my 11 discovery questions. I filed a Motion to Compel. The arbitrator ordered defendants' attorney to assemble the 43 non-responsive pages into something resembling a response. Guaranteed to provide the Plaintiff with nothing and it didn't. What is Plaintiff's recourse at this point?

If they didn't comply with a court order, you could ask for sanctions. Whether that's appropriate or likely to be awarded under your set of facts is a question better directed toward your own attorney. If you don't have an attorney yet, there may be plenty of other issues that you're overlooking beyond your discovery objections.
