Bill > SB1602

This bill modifies how funds are transferred to and assessed for law libraries in Oklahoma, with specific changes for counties based on their population. For counties with over 500,000 residents, the board of trustees must now vote to authorize any funds to be transferred to the court fund, whereas previously this was not required. Additionally, the bill adjusts the annual mandatory transfer amounts from county court funds to law library revolving funds for counties with less than 500,000 residents, changing the population thresholds and amounts for these transfers. Furthermore, it alters the flat fees collected in civil court cases, specifically increasing the amount assessed and credited to the Law Library Fund in counties with over 500,000 residents to $12.00, while counties with less than 500,000 residents will have $6.00 assessed for this fund. The bill also includes an effective date of November 1, 2026.
