Resolution No. 1004 is a concurrent resolution from the Oklahoma Legislature that addresses a consent decree related to the provision of competency evaluations and restoration treatment for individuals deemed incompetent to stand trial in Oklahoma. The resolution highlights the obligation of the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services to provide necessary treatment for these individuals, particularly through the Oklahoma Forensic Center, which is the only state-operated facility offering secure, in-patient competency restoration. Following a class action lawsuit filed by a putative class against the Department and the Forensic Center, the parties reached a consent decree to resolve the claims, which the resolution states is credible and serious, thereby avoiding the costs and uncertainties of prolonged litigation.

The resolution calls for the approval of this consent decree by the Oklahoma Legislature, as required by state law. It emphasizes the importance of legislative consent in formalizing the agreement reached between the parties involved in the lawsuit. The House of Representatives adopted the resolution on February 19, 2025, indicating legislative support for the consent decree and the commitment to ensuring that individuals requiring treatment receive the necessary services to achieve competency in the legal system.
