SB 1120 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Oklahoma Pleading Code; modifying requirements for certain claims and averments. Effective date.

SB 1120 amends Oklahoma's Pleading Code to clarify requirements for legal claims and defenses in civil lawsuits. It requires plaintiffs to state material facts with particularity to support their claims and simplifies how damages are reported - requiring only that amounts exceed federal diversity jurisdiction thresholds (without specifying exact figures) in most cases. The bill also updates language to be gender-neutral and defines key terms. This affects all parties filing or responding to civil lawsuits in Oklahoma courts, streamlining procedural requirements without changing substantive legal rights.
