Bill No. 813 amends various sections of Oklahoma law regarding victim protective orders, specifically focusing on emergency temporary orders of protection. The bill introduces new duties for peace officers, requiring them to attempt to serve the subject of the order and to complete a return of service when filing the petition with the district court. If service cannot be obtained, the peace officer must file the petition the next business day. Additionally, the court clerk is tasked with receiving and documenting the petition and ensuring that a hearing date is assigned. The bill also modifies the required notice to victims and mandates that peace officers provide victims with a copy of the petition and a written statement confirming the approval of the emergency order.

Furthermore, the bill repeals a previous section related to Stalking Warning Letters and clarifies existing language regarding the issuance and conditions of emergency protective orders. It establishes that emergency temporary ex parte orders will remain in effect until the assigned court date and outlines the responsibilities of peace officers in notifying both the victim and the subject of the order. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and includes an emergency clause for immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
