Rep. Anthony Moore

Maddy summaryHB 1734 modifies Oklahoma's civil procedure rules for sheriff property sales conducted via online auctions. It limits online auction platforms to charging a maximum $350 fee for their services, prohibits charging buyers a separate "buyer's premium" (though requires disclosure if any fee is disclosed), and specifies how platforms must handle payments (holding deposits, settling transactions, then remitting funds to the court). The bill directly affects sheriffs conducting sales, online auction platforms, and property buyers participating in these sales. It takes effect on November 1, 2025.

Maddy summaryHB 1749 requires all Oklahoma police agencies using canine units - such as city police departments, county sheriff's offices, and campus police - to equip their canine transport vehicles with heat alarm systems. These systems must activate when the vehicle stops or interior temperatures exceed 85°F, triggering an audible alarm, automatically lowering rear windows, and notifying officers of dangerous conditions. The law applies to all agencies operating canine law enforcement programs and takes effect on November 1, 2025. It directly affects law enforcement agencies by mandating specific safety technology to protect police dogs during vehicle operations.

Maddy summaryHB 1741 amends Oklahoma's Uniform Commercial Code to clarify which state's laws govern securities transactions involving financial institutions (like banks or brokers) and their clients. It specifies that the "issuer's jurisdiction" (where the company that issued the security is based) or the "securities intermediary's jurisdiction" (where the financial institution holding the security is located) determines legal rules for security transfers, rights, and disputes. The bill also clarifies that assets held by financial institutions for clients belong to those clients - not the institution - and cannot be claimed by the institution's creditors during bankruptcy. This directly affects financial institutions managing client securities and their clients, ensuring clearer legal boundaries for ownership and recovery rights.

Maddy summaryHB 1752 establishes the name "Central Purchasing Act of 2025" for Oklahoma's central purchasing framework and sets an effective date of November 1, 2025. This procedural bill does not change purchasing rules or affect specific entities; it solely formalizes the act's name and implementation timeline. The bill is noncodified, meaning it will not be added to Oklahoma's official statutes. It is currently in the early stages of legislative review.

Maddy summaryHB 1766 is a procedural bill that establishes the name "Department of Human Services Act of 2024" for administrative purposes and sets its effective date as November 1, 2025. It does not create new policies, alter agency operations, or affect any individuals or entities. The bill merely provides a title and effective date for the act, with no substantive provisions or mechanisms. As a naming and timing measure, it has no direct impact on service recipients, staff, or program funding.

Maddy summaryHB 1744 amends Oklahoma law to expand the list of corporate officers authorized to sign real estate deeds and conveyances. It specifies that a corporation's deed or real estate instrument may be signed by an attorney-in-fact, chief executive officer, chief financial officer, president, vice-president, chairman, or vice-chairman of the board. This change directly affects corporations conducting real estate transactions in Oklahoma, streamlining who can legally execute such documents. The bill takes effect November 1, 2025.

Maddy summaryHB 1736 is a procedural bill that names the "Oklahoma Tourism Act of 2025" and sets its effective date as November 1, 2025. It does not create new policies, programs, or funding; it solely establishes the official name for future tourism-related legislation and specifies when that name takes effect. This bill directly affects Oklahoma's legislative process by providing a designated title for future tourism statutes. No substantive changes to tourism programs or regulations are included in this bill.

Maddy summaryHB 1774 is a procedural bill that names the "Department of Human Services Act of 2025" and sets its effective date as November 1, 2025. It does not create new policies or alter existing programs; it solely establishes the bill's official title and implementation date. The bill affects no specific individuals or programs, as it serves only to formally name the legislative act. This is a routine administrative step common for new legislation.

Maddy summaryHB 1756, titled the "Domestic Violence Law Reform Act of 2024," is a procedural bill that establishes the name for a non-codified domestic violence law and sets its effective date. The bill does not describe substantive policy changes or mechanisms; it only names the law and specifies November 1, 2025, as its effective date. No direct impact on affected individuals or specific provisions are outlined in the provided text. This is a naming and effective date bill, not a policy reform.

Maddy summaryHB 1763 establishes the "Oklahoma Guardianship Act of 2025" as a named legislative act and sets its effective date for November 1, 2025. This bill is procedural, creating a title for future guardianship law without altering existing statutes or adding substantive policy provisions. It does not directly affect individuals or change legal mechanisms, as it is explicitly non-codified and serves only to identify the act. The bill requires no action beyond its naming and effective date designation.
