Oklahoma Court System

Oklahoma Court System

The state Court System consists of the Oklahoma Supreme Court and then two types of appellate courts, a Court of Civil Appeals and a Court of Criminal Appeals, and then the District Courts. There are also three types of specialized courts which fall outside the standard judicial branch tree, and they are a Workers’ Compensation Court of Existing Claims, Court of Tax Review, and Municipal Court.

The District Courts have a substantial number of judges totaling 75 district judges, 77 associate judges, and 89 special judges. Supreme Court justices serve six-year terms and must be thirty years old and practice law for five years before being elected into office. They also must maintain their law license during the time they serve as a Supreme Court justice. The Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) oversees and support the entire court system.

OK Records That are not Open to the Public

The OK State Courts Network government website (oscn.net) includes a records search feature for many types of cases. However, not all public records will be available. According to Oklahoma law, sealed, expunged and juvenile records, along with records regarding adoptions, guardianships and victims information will not be shown to the public. Additionally, the federal government also has laws prohibiting specific information like children’s names, mental health records, home addresses, tax IDs, social security numbers, trade secrets, and other personal or sensitive data from being shown on publicly available public records. These types of things will be redacted from the files. Patrons of the court can always visit the court clerk's office to ask about what is and is not available.
