Okla. Stat. tit. 50, § 50-17: Abatement by suit in district court

In cases where it is deemed impractical summarily to abate any

such nuisance such city or town may bring suit in the district court

of the county in which such nuisance is located, and it is hereby

made the duty of the governing body of any such city or town, by the

adoption of a resolution to direct the bringing of suit in the

proper court for the purpose of abating any such nuisance. The

district court of the county in which any such nuisance exists or is

maintained shall have jurisdiction of any such case and power to

adjudge and determine any action brought under the provisions

hereof, and where it is adjudged that any such nuisance exists or is

maintained and should be abated, such court shall have the power and

authority either by and through a commissioner appointed by such

court, or otherwise, to cause such nuisance to be abated and to

assess all the costs thereof, including the costs of suit, against

the property on which such nuisance existed or is maintained, and to

declare such costs a judgment against said property and order and

direct the sale of said property for the purpose of satisfying said

judgment and shall cause the same to be sold and proceeds thereof

applied to the payment of the costs of abating any such nuisance.
