Oklahoma SB961 requires county clerks to notify the previous deed holder when a new deed is filed. The county clerk must attempt to verify the deed holder's consent to proceed with the filing. If the deed holder contests the validity of the new deed, the filing process is halted and the local district attorney is notified for investigation. The bill also outlines procedures for handling nonconforming documents, including additional fees and conditions for acceptance. County clerks are not liable for damages if they follow the notification processes outlined in the bill.
