HB 2926 modifies Oklahoma's rules for funeral home vendor payments. It requires penalties for late vendor payments to be imposed only after a court judgment, applies penalties solely to funeral homes (not individual funeral directors), and mandates compliance with federal bankruptcy laws. The bill also requires proper consumer fund receipts for all advance cash payments made to funeral homes. These changes directly affect active funeral homes and their vendors by clarifying payment dispute procedures and consumer protections.
