The designated drug court judge shall make all judicial\n\ndecisions concerning any case assigned to the drug court docket or\n\nprogram. The judge shall require progress reports and a periodic\n\nreview of each offender during his or her period of participation in\n\nthe drug court program or for purposes of collecting costs and fees\n\nafter completion of the treatment portion of the program. Reports\n\nfrom the treatment providers and the supervising staff shall be\n\npresented to the drug court judge as specified by the treatment plan\n\nor as ordered by the court.\n\nB. Upon the written or oral motion of the treatment provider,\n\nthe district attorney, the defense attorney, the defendant, or the\n\nsupervising staff, the drug court judge shall set a date for a\n\nhearing to review the offender, the treatment plan, and the\n\nprovisions of the performance contract. Notice shall be given to\n\nthe offender and the other parties participating in the drug court\n\ncase three (3) days before the hearing may be held.\n\nC. The judge may establish a regular schedule for progress\n\nhearings for any offender in the drug court program. The district\n\nattorney shall not be required to attend regular progress hearings,\n\nbut shall be required to be present upon the motion of any party to\n\na drug court case.\n\nD. The treatment provider, the supervising staff, the district\n\nattorney, and the defense attorney shall be allowed access to all\n\ninformation in the offender's drug court case file and all\n\ninformation presented to the judge at any periodic review or\n\nprogress hearing.\n\nE. The drug court judge shall recognize relapses and restarts\n\nin the program which are considered to be part of the rehabilitation\n\nand recovery process. The judge shall accomplish monitoring and\n\noffender accountability by ordering progressively increasing\n\nsanctions or providing incentives, rather than removing the offender\n\nfrom the program when relapse occurs, except when the offender's\n\nconduct requires revocation from the program. Any revocation from\n\nthe drug court program shall require notice to the offender and\n\nother participating parties in the case and a revocation hearing.\n\nAt the revocation hearing, if the offender is found to have violated\n\nthe conditions of the plea agreement or performance contract and\n\ndisciplinary sanctions have been insufficient to gain compliance,\n\nthe offender shall be revoked from the program and sentenced for the\n\noffense as provided in the plea agreement.\n\nF. Upon application of any participating party to a drug court\n\ncase, the judge may modify a treatment plan at any hearing when it\n\nis determined that the treatment is not benefiting the offender.\n\nThe primary objective of the judge in monitoring the progress of the\n\noffender and the treatment plan shall be to keep the offender in\n\ntreatment for a sufficient time to change behaviors and attitudes.\n\nModification of the treatment plan requires a consultation with the\n\ntreatment provider, supervising staff, district attorney, and the\n\ndefense attorney in open court.\n\nG. The judge shall be prohibited from amending the written plea\n\nagreement after an offender has been admitted to the drug court\n\nprogram. Nothing in this provision shall be construed to limit the\n\nauthority of the judge to remove an offender from the program and\n\nimpose the required punishment stated in the plea agreement after\n\napplication, notice, and hearing.","path":["OK Code","Title 22"],"source_url":"https://www.oklegislature.gov/OK_Statutes/CompleteTitles/os22.pdf","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:36Z","sha256":"8b9379ae1f7738ce6972a29ac6e839e882bb717ae4d6051c47c0a4e1dd274a39","source_id":"us-ok","stale":false,"prev":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-22-22-471.6","next":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-22-22-471.8"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
