Bill > HB3084

This bill increases the annual salary for court reporters in Oklahoma from $53,000 to $55,000, effective for fiscal year 2027 and beyond. It also enhances longevity pay, which is an additional amount paid to court reporters based on their years of service, by increasing the annual amount per year of service from $400 to $500 and raising the maximum total longevity pay from $8,000 to $10,000 per year. The bill specifies that "years of service" for longevity pay includes all years served as a certified or licensed court reporter after June 30, 1978, and that these longevity payments will be made annually on July 1. Additionally, the bill declares an emergency, meaning it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval, rather than waiting for the standard July 1 effective date for the salary and longevity increases.
