§
40.3. Victims not to be discouraged from pressing charges--Warrantless
arrest of certain persons--Emergency temporary order of protection
A. A peace
officer shall not discourage a victim of rape, forcible sodomy
or domestic abuse from pressing charges against the assailant
of the victim.
B. A peace
officer may arrest without a warrant a person anywhere, including
his place of residence, if the peace officer has probable cause
to believe the person within the preceding seventy-two (72)
hours has committed an act of domestic abuse as defined by Section
60.1 of this title, although the assault did not take place
in the presence of the peace officer. A peace officer may not
arrest a person pursuant to this section without first observing
a recent physical injury to, or an impairment of the physical
condition of, the alleged victim.
C. When the
court is not open for business, the victim of domestic abuse
may request a petition for an emergency temporary order of protection.
The peace officer making the preliminary investigation shall:
1.
Provide the victim with a petition for an emergency temporary
order of protection and, if necessary, assist the victim in
completing the petition form. The petition shall be in substantially
the same form as provided by Section 60.2 of this title for
a petition for protective order;
2. Immediately
notify, by telephone or otherwise, a judge of the district
court of the request for an emergency temporary order of protection
and describe the circumstances. The judge shall inform the
peace officer of his decision to approve or disapprove the
emergency temporary order;
3. Inform
the victim whether the judge has approved or disapproved the
emergency temporary order. If an emergency temporary order
has been approved, the officer shall provide the victim, or
a responsible adult if the victim is a minor child or an incompetent
person, with a copy of the petition and a written statement
signed by the officer attesting that the judge has approved
the emergency temporary order of protection and notify said
victim that the emergency temporary order shall be effective
only until the close of business on the next day that the
court is open for business;
4. Notify
the person subject to the emergency temporary protection order
of the issuance and conditions of the order. Notification
pursuant to this paragraph may be made personally by the officer
or in writing. A copy of the petition and the statement of
the officer attesting to the order of the judge shall be made
available to said person; and
5. File
a copy of the petition and the statement of the officer with
the district court of the county immediately upon the opening
of the court on the next day the court is open for business.
D. The forms
utilized by law enforcement agencies in carrying out the provisions
of this section may be substantially similar to those used under
Section 60.2 of this title.

§
60.2. Protective order--Petition; form; fees; preparation

of domestic abuse, a victim of stalking, a victim of harassment,
any adult or emancipated minor household member on behalf of
any other family or household member who is a minor or incompetent,

order with the district court in the county in which the victim
resides, the county in which the defendant resides, or the county

by a victim that is a family or household member of the defendant
shall be given priority for service over other protective orders.

ex parte order of protection
A. If a plaintiff
requests an emergency ex parte order pursuant to Section 60.2
of this title, the court shall hold an ex parte hearing on the
same day the petition is filed. The court may, for good cause
shown at the hearing, issue any emergency ex parte order that
it finds necessary to protect the victim from immediate and
present danger of domestic abuse, stalking, or harassment. The
emergency ex parte order shall be in effect until after the
full hearing is conducted. Provided, if the defendant, after
having been served, does not appear at the hearing, the emergency
ex parte order shall remain in effect until the defendant is
served with the permanent order. If the terms of the permanent
order are the same as those in the emergency order, or are less
restrictive, then it is not necessary to serve the defendant
with the permanent order. Any emergency ex parte order entered
shall state: "IF YOU FAIL TO APPEAR AT THE HEARING, A PERMANENT
ORDER MAY BE ISSUED WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE TO YOU." An emergency
ex parte order authorized by this section may include the following:

C. If a plaintiff
requests an emergency temporary ex parte order of protection
as provided by Section 40.3 of this title, the judge who is

verbally to the officer or in writing when there is reasonable
cause to believe that the order is necessary to protect the
victim from immediate and present danger of domestic abuse.

§
60.4. Service of emergency ex parte order, petition for
protective order and notice of hearing--Full hearing--Final
protective order
A. A copy
of the petition, notice of hearing and a copy of any emergency
ex parte order issued by the court shall be served upon the
defendant in the same manner as a summons. The fee for service
of an emergency ex parte order, petition for protective order,
and notice of hearing shall be the same as the sheriff's service
fee plus mileage expenses. Emergency ex parte orders shall be
given priority for service and can be served twenty-four (24)
hours a day when the location of the defendant is known. When
service cannot be made upon the defendant by the sheriff within
three (3) days following the filing of a petition for a protective
order or the issuance of an emergency ex parte order, the sheriff
may contact another law enforcement officer or a private investigator
to serve the defendant. An emergency ex parte order, a petition
for protective order, and a notice of hearing shall have statewide
validity and may be transferred to any law enforcement jurisdiction
to effect service upon the defendant. The return of service
shall be submitted to the sheriff's office in the court where
the petition, notice of hearing or order was issued. When the
defendant is a minor child who is ordered removed from the residence
of the victim, in addition to those documents served upon the
defendant, a copy of the petition, notice of hearing and a copy
of any ex parte order issued by the court shall be delivered
with the child to the caretaker of the place where such child
is taken pursuant to Section 7303-1.1 of Title 10 of the Oklahoma
Statutes.
B. Within
fifteen (15) days of the filing of the petition for a protective
order, the court shall schedule a full hearing on the petition,
regardless of whether an emergency ex parte order has been previously
issued, requested or denied. Provided, however, when the defendant
is a minor child who has been removed from the residence pursuant
to Section 7303-1.1 of Title 10 of the Oklahoma Statutes, the
court shall schedule a full hearing on the petition within seventy-two
(72) hours, regardless of whether an emergency ex parte order
has been previously issued, requested or denied. The court may
schedule a full hearing on the petition for a protective order
within seventy-two (72) hours when the court issues an emergency
ex parte order suspending child visitation rights due to physical
violence or threat of abuse. If service has not been made on
the defendant at the time of the hearing, the court shall continue
the hearing. A petition for a protective order shall automatically
renew every fifteen (15) days until the defendant is served.
A petition for a protective order shall not expire and must
be dismissed by court order. Failure to serve the defendant
shall not be grounds for dismissal of a petition or an ex parte
order unless the victim requests dismissal.
C. At the
hearing, the court may impose any terms and conditions in the
protective order that the court reasonably believes are necessary
to bring about the cessation of domestic abuse against the victim
or stalking or harassment of the victim or the victim's immediate
family including, but not limited to, counseling or treatment
in a program certified by the Department of Mental Health and
Substance Abuse Services at the defendant's expense. If the
court grants a protective order and the defendant is a minor
child, the court shall order a preliminary inquiry in a juvenile
proceeding to determine whether further court action pursuant
to the Oklahoma Juvenile Code [FN1] should be taken against
a juvenile defendant.
D. Final protective
orders authorized by this section may include the following,
in addition to any other order specified by the court:
1.
An order to the defendant not to abuse or injure the victim;
2. An order
to the defendant not to telephone, visit, assault, molest,
stalk, harass or otherwise interfere with the victim;
3. An order
suspending child visitation rights due to physical violence
or threat of abuse by the defendant, or a threat to violate
a custody order, or an order requiring supervised visitation
with the child in a neutral setting;

to the defendant not to threaten the victim;
5. An order
to the defendant to cease stalking the victim;

to the defendant to cease harassment of the victim;

requiring payment of court costs and service of process fees;
and
10. An order
requiring a preliminary inquiry in a juvenile proceeding pursuant
to the Oklahoma Juvenile Code.
E. A final
protective order authorized by this section shall include the
name, sex, race, and date of birth of the defendant and the
dates of issue and expiration of the protective order.
F. After notice
and hearing, protective orders authorized by this section may
require the plaintiff or the defendant or both to undergo treatment
or participate in the counseling services necessary to bring
about cessation of domestic abuse against the victim. Either
party or both may be required to pay all or any part of the
cost of such treatment or counseling services. The court shall
not be responsible for such cost.
G. When necessary
to protect the victim and when authorized by the court, protective
orders granted pursuant to the provisions of this section may
be served upon the defendant by a peace officer, sheriff, constable,
or policeman or other officer whose duty it is to preserve the
peace, as defined by Section 99 of Title 21 of the Oklahoma
Statutes.
H. Any protective
order issued on or after November 1, 1999, pursuant to subsection
C of this section shall be for a fixed period not to exceed
a period of three (3) years unless extended, modified, vacated
or rescinded upon motion by either party or if the court approves
any consent agreement entered into by the plaintiff and defendant.
The court shall notify the parties at the time of the issuance
of the protective order of the duration of the protective order.
Upon the filing of a motion by either party to modify, extend,
or vacate a protective order, a hearing shall be scheduled and
notice given to the parties. At the hearing, the issuing court
may take such action as is necessary under the circumstances.
If a child has been removed from the residence of a parent or
custodial adult because of domestic abuse committed by the child,
the parent or custodial adult may refuse the return of such
child to the residence, unless upon further consideration by
the court in a juvenile proceeding, it is determined that the
child is no longer a threat and should be allowed to return
to the residence.
I. It shall
be unlawful for any person to knowingly and willfully seek a
protective order against a spouse or ex-spouse pursuant to Section
60 et seq. of this title for purposes of harassment, undue advantage,
intimidation, or limitation of child visitation rights in any
divorce proceeding or separation action without justifiable
cause. The violator shall, upon conviction, be guilty of a misdemeanor
punishable by imprisonment in the county jail for a period not
exceeding one (1) year or by a fine not to exceed Five Thousand
Dollars ($5,000.00), or by both such fine and imprisonment.
A second or subsequent conviction under this subsection shall
be a felony punishable by imprisonment in the custody of the
Department of Corrections for a period not to exceed two (2)
years, or by a fine not to exceed Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00),
or by both such fine and imprisonment.
J. A protective
order issued under the Protection from Domestic Abuse Act, Section
60 et seq. of this title, shall not in any manner affect title
to real property, purport to grant to the parties a divorce
or otherwise purport to determine the issues between the parties
as to child custody, visitation or visitation schedules, child
support or division of property or any other like relief obtainable
under Sections 101 et seq. of Title 43 of the Oklahoma Statutes,
except child visitation orders may be temporarily suspended
or modified to protect from threats of abuse or physical violence
by the defendant or a threat to violate a custody order. When
granting any protective order for the protection of a minor
child from violence or threats of abuse, the court shall allow
visitation only under conditions that provide adequate supervision
and protection to the child while maintaining the integrity
of a divorce decree or temporary order.

designated by the court.

Any law enforcement agency receiving copies of the documents
listed in subsection A of this section shall be required to
ensure that other law enforcement agencies have access twenty-four
(24) hours a day to the information contained in the documents
