HB 4140 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Crimes and punishments; modifying elements of grand larceny and receiving stolen property; effective date.

HB 4140 modifies Oklahoma's laws on grand larceny and receiving stolen property by adjusting penalty tiers based on the value of stolen property. It reduces maximum fines for receiving stolen property from $2,500 to $500 across all value ranges and updates felony classifications (e.g., $1,000-$2,500 now triggers a Class D3 felony for both crimes, with a $1,000 fine limit for larceny). The bill also requires courts to order restitution to victims for both offenses. It takes effect November 1, 2026, and directly affects individuals convicted of these property crimes.

MINOR

The bill was revised to align the Senate version with the House version, primarily correcting a citation error in the effective date and standardizing the formatting of the committee report. The substantive legal text regarding theft penalties remains unchanged.

TIMELINE

Corrected the citation for the effective date from '21 O.S. Supp. 2024' to '21 O.S. Supp. 2025' to match the current legislative session.

TECHNICAL

Updated the committee report attribution from 'Committee on Judiciary and Public Safety Oversight' to 'Committee on Judiciary' and standardized the date format.

Adjusted page headers and footers to reflect the Senate Floor Version instead of the House Floor Version.
