Okla. Stat. tit. 43A, § 43A-7-106: Return of property upon death or discharge

When any consumer in any state facility subject to the

jurisdiction of the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse

Services dies or leaves such facility, all property, including

money, belonging to said consumer shall be immediately delivered:

1. To the consumer, if leaving; or

2. To the guardian or next of kin of the consumer, if the

consumer has died. If the consumer has died and no person is

available for such delivery, the facility shall notify the guardian

or next of kin of such death and the description of the property on

hand by certified mail at the last-known address of such guardian or

next of kin. If the property is not claimed within one (1) year

from the date of such notice, then the property shall become the

property of the state, and all monies shall be credited to the

revolving fund of the facility.
