Oklahoma HB1996 amends the procedures for disposing of unclaimed property by sheriff's offices and campus police agencies. The bill updates the written notice requirements for public sales, donations, and destruction of personal property.

The court must set a hearing date between ten and twenty days after filing, and notice of the hearing must be posted in three public places or published in a newspaper.
