Oklahoma HB1746 amends the juvenile code to limit jury trials on termination of parental rights.
Oklahoma HB1746 amends the juvenile code to restrict the right to a jury trial on the issue of termination of parental rights. Specifically, it excludes parents, the state, and the child from demanding a jury trial solely on the issue of termination of parental rights when the initial petition to determine if a child is deprived also contains a request for termination of parental rights. The bill also outlines procedures for scheduling and conducting jury trials in such cases.
