Professions and occupations; bail bondsmen; alcohol licensee exemption; effective date.
HB 1670 removes an exemption that previously allowed individuals holding alcohol licenses (for private clubs serving alcohol) to become bail bondsmen. The bill amends Oklahoma law to explicitly prohibit these license holders from acting as bail bondsmen, adding them to the list of disqualifications under Section 1315. This change directly affects alcohol licensees operating private clubs where alcoholic beverages are consumed on-site. The key mechanism is updating the disqualification list to eliminate the prior exception for alcohol license holders, while maintaining existing restrictions on felons, law enforcement, and others. The bill does not affect alcohol licensees holding permits issued before 1984.
