This bill establishes new legal definitions and penalties related to assault and battery against county employees in Oklahoma. It defines a "county employee" as any person employed by a county or a contractor working with the county. The bill creates misdemeanor and felony offenses for individuals who commit assault, battery, or aggravated assault and battery against county employees while they are performing their duties. Specifically, a misdemeanor conviction can result in up to one year in county jail and a fine of up to $1,000, while a felony conviction for aggravated offenses can lead to up to two years in the Department of Corrections and a fine of up to $5,000.

Additionally, the bill mandates that every county site must display a notice warning that felony charges may be filed against anyone committing aggravated assault or battery against a county employee. The new law is set to be codified as Section 650.12 of Title 21 in the Oklahoma Statutes and will take effect on November 1, 2025.
