Oklahoma HB1991 allows defendants in county jails to post bond in another jurisdiction to release holds.
Oklahoma HB1991 amends criminal procedure to allow defendants in county jails to post bond in another jurisdiction to release holds. If a defendant is in custody and has a hold from another jurisdiction, they can post a bond in that jurisdiction to be released. The amendment specifies that the magistrate must proceed with bail in the same manner as if the defendant had been arrested locally. This change aims to streamline the process for defendants facing holds from other jurisdictions.
