Bill overview
This bill changes how Oklahoma courts handle situations where a parent has been denied court-ordered visitation or possession of a child. It allows courts to order additional periods of possession or access to the child to compensate for the denial, particularly if the denial stemmed from a Department of Human Services investigation that didn’t find abuse or neglect. The parent who was denied access will have the right to determine the timing of these additional periods, with certain limitations.
