Oklahoma HB1230 allows service of process by electronic means in civil cases.

Oklahoma HB1230 amends civil procedure rules to permit service of a summons and petition by electronic means. This method applies to defendants in divisions (1), (3), or (5) of subparagraph c of paragraph 1 of this subsection. Service by electronic means is effective upon receipt or, if communication fails, on the date of refusal. The notice must include a hyperlink to a secure application that tracks the email and provides evidence of delivery. The act also outlines provisions for service by mail, personal delivery, and other methods, including service on the Secretary of State.
