Bill overview
This bill modifies the Oklahoma Children’s Code to clarify terms related to child abandonment and abuse, establish a more specific evidentiary standard for court decisions, and outline procedures for immediate release of a child if they aren't deemed to be in immediate need of protection. It also increases the penalties for failing to comply with court orders and for failing to comply with the statute, and establishes an effective date for the changes.
