Chamber Passed·3/6/25

Oklahoma HB1593 allows peace officers to dispute misconduct reports and prohibits reliance on unsustained allegations.

Oklahoma HB1593 establishes procedures for peace officers to contest allegations of misconduct. If a peace officer is placed on a "Do Not Call" list due to misconduct allegations, they can petition the Office of the Attorney General. The Office must refer the petition to an administrative law judge for a hearing. If the judge finds the allegations unsupported, the law enforcement agency and state attorney cannot rely on those allegations. The act codifies these procedures and takes effect November 1, 2025.
