Okla. Stat. tit. 22, § 22-471.3: Initial hearing

A. At the initial hearing for consideration of an offender for

a drug court program, the district attorney shall determine whether:

1. The offender has approval to be considered for the drug

court program; and

2. Any statutory preclusion, other prohibition, or program

limitation exists and is applicable to considering the offender for

the program.

The district attorney may object to the consideration of an

offender for the drug court program at the initial hearing.

B. If the offender voluntarily consents to be considered for

the drug court program and has signed and filed the required form

requesting consideration, and no objection has been made by the

district attorney, the court may refer the offender for a drug court

investigation as provided in Section 471.4 of this title, and set a

date for a hearing to determine final eligibility for admittance

into the program.

C. Upon any objection of the district attorney for

consideration of an offender for the program, the court shall deny

consideration of the offender's request for participation in the

drug court program. Upon denial for consideration in the drug court

program at the initial hearing, the criminal case shall proceed in

the traditional manner. A denial of consideration of the offender

for the program shall not preclude any future consideration of the

offender for the drug court program with the approval of the

district attorney.
