Cockfighting; modifying offenses and penalties. Effective date.
This bill amends Oklahoma's cockfighting laws by updating definitions and reducing penalties for certain offenses. It directly affects individuals involved in cockfighting activities, including organizers, participants, and those who provide facilities or equipment like cages or training devices. Key changes include redefining "cockfight" to cover training fights and declaring specific equipment as contraband, while lowering penalties for first-time offenses to a misdemeanor (up to one year in jail or $500 fine) and adjusting fines for repeat violations. The bill repeals three existing sections related to asset forfeiture for cockfighting violations and takes effect on November 1, 2025.
