Okla. Stat. tit. 74, § 74-18p-9: Crime victim and witness notification and victim

protective order system.

A. The Attorney General may establish a crime victim and

witness notification and victim protective order system to assist

public officials in carrying out their duties to notify and inform

crime victims and witnesses as the Attorney General specifies by

rule. The system shall download necessary information from

participating officials into its computers, where it shall be

maintained, updated, and automatically transmitted to victims and

witnesses by telephone, computer, or written notice.

B. The Department of Corrections, the Pardon and Parole Board,

and each county sheriff office within the state shall cooperate with

the Attorney General in the implementation of this section and shall

provide information as necessary to the effective operation of the

system.

C. District attorneys and local law enforcement and other

authorities may enter into agreements with the Attorney General for

participation in the system. The Attorney General may provide those

who elect to participate with the equipment, software, or training

necessary to bring their offices into the system.

D. The Attorney General may provide for telephonic, electronic,

or other public access to the database established under this

section.

E. This section does not limit any rights or responsibilities

otherwise enjoyed by or imposed upon victims or witnesses of violent

crimes, nor does it grant any person a cause of action for damages

or attorney fees. Any act of omission or commission by any law

enforcement officer or district attorney, by the Attorney General,

Department of Corrections, Pardon and Parole Board, or other state

agency, or private entity under contract with the state, or by any

employee of any state agency or private entity under contract with

the state acting in good faith in rendering crime victim’s

assistance or otherwise enforcing this section shall not impose

civil liability upon the individual or entity or his or her

supervisor or employer. Nothing in this section shall create a

basis for vacating a conviction or a ground for appellate relief in

any criminal case. Failure of the crime victim to receive notice as

required, however, shall not deprive the court of the power to act

regarding the proceeding before it; nor shall any such failure grant

the defendant the right to seek a continuance.
