Fees; increasing sheriff's fee for certain service. Effective date. Emergency.
SB 734 increases the minimum sheriff's fee for serving legal documents within a county from $50 to $75, while maintaining the same $50-$150 range for out-of-county services. This change directly affects criminal defendants paying court costs and sheriffs' offices collecting these fees. The bill modifies Section 153 of Oklahoma's criminal court costs statute, specifically adjusting the fee structure for sheriff services without altering other existing court fees or fund allocations. It is a procedural adjustment to court cost rates, not a substantive policy change.
