Bill > HB2478

This bill, known as "Alanda's Law", amends existing laws in Oklahoma related to custody proceedings. The key provisions include: 1. Allowing the court to issue temporary orders for child support, custody, and visitation as part of a paternity proceeding. 2. Modifying the requirements for when the court must hold a substantive hearing and issue a ruling on custody, visitation, child support, and other related matters when temporary orders are sought. The timeframe is generally 30 days unless domestic abuse is alleged, in which case the hearing must be held within 10 days. 3. Providing that temporary orders and the automatic temporary injunction terminate when the final judgment on all issues, except attorney fees and costs, is rendered or when the action is dismissed. 4. The bill will become effective on November 1, 2024.
