Assault and battery; requiring certain assessment; authorizing certain alternative programs. Effective date.

SB 1100 amends Oklahoma's domestic abuse sentencing laws to increase penalties for assaults against intimate partners or family members, including longer prison terms for repeat offenses and specific provisions for cases involving pregnant victims. The bill requires courts to mandate court-ordered assessments and participation in certified batterers' intervention programs (minimum 52 weeks) or alternative programs (minimum 26 weeks) as a condition of suspended or deferred sentences for domestic abuse convictions. Defendants must complete these programs, with three consecutive or seven total unexcused absences serving as evidence for probation revocation. The law directly affects individuals convicted of domestic abuse, courts managing these cases, and certified domestic violence program providers overseeing the required treatment.
