Okla. Stat. tit. 12, § 12-27: Clerk may collect judgment and costs

Where there is no execution outstanding, the clerk of the court

in which the judgment was rendered may receive the amount of the

judgment and costs, and receipt therefor, with the same effect as if

the same had been paid to the sheriff on an execution; and the clerk

shall be liable to be amerced in the same manner and amount as a

sheriff for refusing to pay the same to the party entitled thereto,

when requested, and shall also be liable on his official bond.
