Okla. Stat. tit. 19, § 19-215.36: Boards of county commissioners to provide certain

facilities and services.

A. Effective January 1, 1983, it shall be the duty of the board

of county commissioners of each county in each district attorney's

district to provide:

1. Sufficient office space in the county courthouse, and the

costs of utility services for power, lighting, heat, cooling,

appropriate janitorial service, and costs of maintenance, upkeep,

and repair of such space, for the personnel and programs of the

office of the district attorney;

2. A sufficient law library and subscriptions to legal

publications necessary for the performance of the duties of the

district attorney, the same to remain an asset and property of the

county;

3. Sufficient funds for the costs and necessary expenses of

investigation, prosecution or defense of any action, whether

contemplated or actual, wherein the county officers, county

appointees or employees, while acting in their official capacity may

be party plaintiffs, defendants or intervenors.

B. Capital assets or properties presently owned by each county

and assigned for use to the office of the district attorney shall

continue to be furnished and owned by said county for use by the

office of the district attorney, with the expense of ordinary

maintenance and repair to be paid by the state. At such time as the

utility of the same shall be of no benefit and, when authorized by

the District Attorneys Council, such property shall be returned to

the county for disposal as provided by law. Said equipment's

equitable replacement is to be provided by the state. Capital

assets or properties presently leased by the county and assigned for

use to the office of the district attorney shall be assigned to the

state by the county, at the request of the Council; thereafter, said

capital assets or properties shall be leased by the state, subject

to the terms and conditions of the lease agreements. Lease payments

shall become the responsibility of the state. Capital assets or

properties presently held by the county under an approved lease-

purchase agreement for equipment or properties assigned to the

office of the district attorney, may, at the election of the

Council, be assumed by the state and any existing intangible worth

by reason of such assumption shall be the property of the state.

The county shall be released from financial responsibility of lease-

purchase payments under the terms of said agreement and held

harmless therefrom by the state. In the event the agreement is

completed to full term, the asset acquired shall be the property of

the state. In the event the state, through the Council, declines to

assume such obligation under any pending lease-purchase agreement,

said county shall retain such agreement and the equipment or the

property held thereunder, and shall have the right to assign such

equipment or property and its use to any county use which may be

provided by law.

C. Counties having a population of three hundred thousand

(300,000) or more shall, and counties having a population of less

than three hundred thousand (300,000) may, furnish sufficient

equipment and personnel for equipment operation for such computer

services and digitizing as the district attorney deems necessary.
