SB 76 Oklahoma Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Parole; authorizing parole revocation by certain entity. Effective date.

SB 76 clarifies which officials can revoke parole in Oklahoma. It states that both the Governor (for parole granted by the Governor) and the Pardon and Parole Board (by majority vote, for parole granted by the Board) may revoke parole and must file revocation certificates with the Secretary of State. The bill also creates an alternative to full revocation: parolees who violate terms may be placed in an intermediate sanctions facility for disciplinary action instead of having parole revoked, at the Department of Corrections' or Governor's discretion. This directly affects parolees who violate parole conditions and changes the process for revocation decisions.
