Okla. Stat. tit. 43, § 43-551-311: Warrant to take physical custody of child

WARRANT TO TAKE PHYSICAL CUSTODY OF CHILD

A. Upon the filing of a petition seeking enforcement of a child

custody determination, the petitioner may file a verified

application for the issuance of a warrant to take physical custody

of the child if the child is imminently likely to suffer serious

physical harm or be removed from this state.

B. If the court, upon the testimony of the petitioner or other

witness, finds that the child is imminently likely to suffer serious

physical harm or be removed from this state it may issue a warrant

to take physical custody of the child. The petition must be heard

on the next judicial day after the warrant is executed unless that

date is impossible. In that event, the court shall hold the hearing

on the first judicial day possible. The application for the warrant

must include the statements required by subsection B of Section 30

of this act.

C. A warrant to take physical custody of a child must:

1. Recite the facts upon which a conclusion of imminent serious

physical harm or removal from the jurisdiction is based;

2. Direct law enforcement officers to take physical custody of

the child immediately; and

3. Provide for the placement of the child pending final relief.

D. The respondent must be served with the petition, warrant,

and order immediately after the child is taken into physical

custody.

E. A warrant to take physical custody of a child is enforceable

throughout this state. If the court finds on the basis of the

testimony of the petitioner or other witness that a less intrusive

remedy is not effective, it may authorize law enforcement officers

to enter private property to take physical custody of the child. If

required by exigent circumstances of the case, the court may

authorize law enforcement officers to make a forcible entry at any

hour.

F. The court may impose conditions upon placement of a child to

ensure the appearance of the child and the child's custodian.
