Oklahoma HB2924 amends procedures for emergency protective orders in domestic abuse cases.
Oklahoma HB2924 modifies the process for emergency protective orders in domestic abuse cases. It mandates peace officers to serve these orders and complete a return of service when filing the petition. The court clerk must receive the petition, and if service has not been obtained, the petition is still filed and issued to the county sheriff for service. The bill also increases the time limitation for the effectiveness of emergency temporary orders and requires notification of the hearing date, time, and location. Peace officers must provide copies of the order to the victim and defendant.
