A.  Except as otherwise provided in the Elderly and
Incapacitated Victim’s Protection Program, when a defendant is

convicted defendant at the time of sentencing or at any time during
the suspended sentence to do one or more of the following:
a. to provide restitution to the victim as provided by
Section 991f et seq. of this title or according to a
schedule of payments established by the sentencing
court, together with interest upon any pecuniary sum
at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, if the
defendant agrees to pay such restitution or, in the

such restitution without imposing manifest hardship on
the defendant or the immediate family and if the
extent of the damage to the victim is determinable
with reasonable certainty,
b. to reimburse any state agency for amounts paid by the
state agency for hospital and medical expenses

rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum,
c. to engage in a term of community service without

the employment and family responsibilities of the
person convicted,
d. to pay a reasonable sum into any trust fund

which provides restitution payments by convicted
defendants to victims of crimes committed within this
state wherein such victim has incurred a financial
loss,
e. to confinement in the county jail for a period not to
exceed six (6) months,
f. to confinement as provided by law together with a term
of post-imprisonment community supervision for not
less than three (3) years of the total term allowed by
law for imprisonment, with or without restitution;

provided, however, the authority of this provision is
limited to Section 843.5 of Title 21 of the Oklahoma
Statutes when the offense involved sexual abuse or
sexual exploitation; Sections 681, 741 and 843.1 of
Title 21 of the Oklahoma Statutes when the offense
involved sexual abuse or sexual exploitation; and
Sections 865 et seq., 885, 886, 888, 891, 1021,
1021.2, 1021.3, 1040.13a, 1087, 1088, 1111.1, 1115 and

g. to repay the reward or part of the reward paid by a
local certified crime stoppers program and the
Oklahoma Reward System.  In determining whether the
defendant shall repay the reward or part of the

defendant to make the payment, the financial hardship
on the defendant to make the required payment and the
importance of the information to the prosecution of
the defendant as provided by the arresting officer or
the district attorney with due regard for the
confidentiality of the records of the local certified
crime stoppers program and the Oklahoma Reward System.
The court shall assess this repayment against the
defendant as a cost of prosecution.  The term
“certified” means crime stoppers organizations that
annually meet the certification standards for crime
stoppers programs established by the Oklahoma Crime
Stoppers Association to the extent those standards do
not conflict with state statutes.  The term “court”
refers to all municipal and district courts within
this state.  The “Oklahoma Reward System” means the
reward program established by Section 150.18 of Title
74 of the Oklahoma Statutes,
h. to reimburse the Oklahoma State Bureau of
Investigation for costs incurred by that agency during

pleaded guilty, nolo contendere or was convicted
including compensation for laboratory, technical or
investigation services performed by the Bureau if, in
the opinion of the court, the defendant is able to pay
without imposing manifest hardship on the defendant,
and if the costs incurred by the Bureau during the
investigation of the defendant’s case may be
determined with reasonable certainty,
i. to pay a reasonable sum to the Crime Victims
Compensation Board, created by Section 142.2 et seq.
of Title 21 of the Oklahoma Statutes, for the benefit

k. to participate in an assessment and evaluation by an
assessment agency or assessment personnel certified by
the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse

substance abuse course or treatment program or both,
pursuant to Sections 3-452 and 3-453 of Title 43A of
the Oklahoma Statutes, or as ordered by the court,
l. to be placed in a victims impact panel program, as
defined in subsection H of this section, or
victim/offender reconciliation program and payment of
a fee to the program of Seventy-five Dollars ($75.00)
as set by the governing authority of the program to
offset the cost of participation by the defendant.
Provided, each victim/offender reconciliation program
shall be required to obtain a written consent form
voluntarily signed by the victim and defendant that
specifies the methods to be used to resolve the
issues, the obligations and rights of each person and
the confidentiality of the proceedings.  Volunteer
mediators and employees of a victim/offender
reconciliation program shall be immune from liability
and have rights of confidentiality as provided in
Section 1805 of Title 12 of the Oklahoma Statutes,
m. to install, at the expense of the defendant, an
ignition interlock device approved by the Board of
Tests for Alcohol and Drug Influence.  The device

by the defendant, and the court shall require that a
notation of this restriction be affixed to the
defendant’s driver license.  The restriction shall
remain on the driver license not exceeding two (2)
years to be determined by the court.  The restriction
may be modified or removed only by order of the court
and notice of any modification order shall be given to
Service Oklahoma.  Upon the expiration of the period
for the restriction, Service Oklahoma shall remove the
restriction without further court order.  Failure to
comply with the order to install an ignition interlock

during the period of restriction shall be a violation
of the sentence and may be punished as deemed proper
by the sentencing court.  As used in this paragraph,

“ignition interlock device” means a device that,
without tampering or intervention by another person,
would prevent the defendant from operating a motor
vehicle if the defendant has a blood or breath alcohol

or rehabilitation for any conditions, behaviors,
deficiencies or disorders which may contribute to

behavior, child development, parenting assistance, job
skills, vocational-technical skills, domestic
relations, literacy, education or any other
identifiable deficiency which may be treated
appropriately in the community and for which a
certified provider or a program recognized by the
court as having significant positive impact exists in
the community.  Any treatment, education or
rehabilitation provider required to be certified
pursuant to law or rule shall be certified by the
appropriate state agency or a national organization,
p. to submit to periodic testing for alcohol,
intoxicating substance or controlled dangerous
substances by a qualified laboratory,
q. to pay a fee or costs for treatment, education,

facilities or persons for services, payments, duties

court,
x. to pay day fines not to exceed fifty percent (50%) of
the net wages earned.  For purposes of this paragraph,
“day fine” means the offender is ordered to pay an
amount calculated as a percentage of net daily wages
earned.  The day fine shall be paid to the local
community sentencing system as reparation to the
community.  Day fines shall be used to support the

aa. to restore damaged property in kind or payment of out-
of-pocket expenses to the victim, if the court is able
to determine the actual out-of-pocket expenses
suffered by the victim,
bb. to attend a victim-offender reconciliation program if
the victim agrees to participate and the offender is
deemed appropriate for participation,
cc. in the case of a person convicted of prostitution
pursuant to Section 1029 of Title 21 of the Oklahoma
Statutes, require such person to receive counseling
for the behavior which may have caused such person to
engage in prostitution activities.  Such person may be
required to receive counseling in areas including but
not limited to alcohol and substance abuse, sexual
behavior problems or domestic abuse or child abuse
problems,
dd. in the case of a sex offender sentenced after November
1, 1989, and required by law to register pursuant to
the Sex Offender Registration Act, the court shall
require the person to comply with sex offender
specific rules and conditions of supervision

established by the Department of Corrections and
require the person to participate in a treatment
program designed for the treatment of sex offenders
during the period of time while the offender is
subject to supervision by the Department of
Corrections.  The treatment program shall include
polygraph examinations specifically designed for use
with sex offenders for purposes of supervision and
treatment compliance, and shall be administered not
less than each six (6) months during the period of
supervision.  The examination shall be administered by
a certified licensed polygraph examiner.  The
treatment program must be approved by the Department
of Corrections or the Department of Mental Health and
Substance Abuse Services.  Such treatment shall be at
the expense of the defendant based on the defendant’s
ability to pay,
ee. in addition to other sentencing powers of the court,
the court in the case of a defendant being sentenced
for a felony conviction for a violation of Section 2-
402 of Title 63 of the Oklahoma Statutes which
involves marijuana may require the person to
participate in a drug court program, if available.  If
a drug court program is not available, the defendant
may be required to participate in a community
sanctions program, if available,
ff. in the case of a person convicted of any false or
bogus check violation, as defined in Section 1541.4 of
Title 21 of the Oklahoma Statutes, impose a fee of
Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) to the victim for each
check, and impose a bogus check fee to be paid to the
district attorney.  The bogus check fee paid to the
district attorney shall be equal to the amount
assessed as court costs plus Twenty-five Dollars
($25.00) for each check upon filing of the case in
district court.  This money shall be deposited in the
Bogus Check Restitution Program Fund as established in
subsection B of Section 114 of this title.
Additionally, the court may require the offender to
pay restitution and bogus check fees on any other
bogus check or checks that have been submitted to the

gg. in the case of a person convicted of an offense under
Section 644 of Title 21 of the Oklahoma Statutes,
require the person to receive an assessment for
batterers, which shall be conducted through a

hh. any other provision specifically ordered by the court.
However, any such order for restitution, community service,
payment to a local certified crime stoppers program, payment to the
Oklahoma Reward System or confinement in the county jail, or a
combination thereof, shall be made in conjunction with probation and
shall be made a condition of the suspended sentence.
However, unless under the supervision of the district attorney,
the offender shall be required to pay Forty Dollars ($40.00) per
month to the district attorney during the first two (2) years of
probation to compensate the district attorney for the costs incurred
during the prosecution of the offender and for the additional work
of verifying the compliance of the offender with the rules and
conditions of his or her probation.  The district attorney may waive
any part of this requirement in the best interests of justice.  The
court may waive the costs of prosecution in the same manner as the
court waives financial obligations pursuant to Section 983 of this
title.  Any unpaid costs of prosecution shall be waived if the
suspended sentence of an offender expires without being revoked;
2.  Impose a fine prescribed by law for the offense, with or
without probation or commitment and with or without restitution or
service as provided for in this section, Section 991a-4.1 of this

3.  Commit such person for confinement provided for by law with
or without restitution as provided for in this section;

without imposing manifest hardship on the defendant, and if the
costs incurred by the Bureau during the investigation of the
defendant’s case may be determined with reasonable certainty;
5.  In the case of nonviolent felony offenses, sentence such
person to the Community Service Sentencing Program;
6.  In addition to the other sentencing powers of the court, in
the case of a person convicted of operating or being in control of a

intoxicating substance, or convicted of operating a motor vehicle
while the ability of the person to operate such vehicle was impaired
due to the consumption of alcohol, require such person:

in subsection H of this section, and to pay a fee of

The restriction shall remain on the driver license for
such period as the court shall determine.  The
restriction may be modified or removed by order of the
court and notice of the order shall be given to
Service Oklahoma.  Upon the expiration of the period
for the restriction, Service Oklahoma shall remove the
restriction without further court order.  Failure to
comply with the order to install an ignition interlock
device or operating any vehicle without such device
during the period of restriction shall be a violation
of the sentence and may be punished as deemed proper
by the sentencing court, or
e. beginning January 1, 1993, to submit to electronically
monitored home detention administered and supervised
by the Department of Corrections, and to pay to the
Department a monitoring fee, not to exceed Seventy-
five Dollars ($75.00) a month, to the Department of
Corrections, if in the opinion of the court the
defendant has the ability to pay such fee.  Any fees
collected pursuant to this subparagraph shall be
deposited in the Department of Corrections Revolving
Fund.  Any order by the court for the payment of the
monitoring fee, if willfully disobeyed, may be
enforced as an indirect contempt of court;

7.  In addition to the other sentencing powers of the court, in

and pursuant to the terms and conditions of a written plea
agreement, the court may prohibit the defendant from entering,
visiting or residing within the judicial district in which the
defendant was convicted until after completion of his or her
sentence; provided, however, the court shall ensure that the
defendant has access to those services or programs for which the
defendant is required to participate as a condition of probation.
When seeking to enter the prohibited judicial district for personal
business not related to his or her criminal case, the defendant
shall be required to obtain approval by the court.
B.  Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any person who
is found guilty of a violation of any provision of Section 761 or
11-902 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma Statutes or any person pleading

sections shall be ordered to participate in, prior to sentencing, an

Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services shall
solicit or refer any person evaluated pursuant to this subsection
for any treatment program or alcohol and drug substance abuse
service in which such person, agency or facility has a vested
interest; however, this provision shall not be construed to prohibit
the court from ordering participation in or any person from
voluntarily utilizing a treatment program or alcohol and drug
substance abuse service offered by such person, agency or facility.
If a person is sentenced to the custody of the Department of
Corrections and the court has received a written evaluation report
pursuant to this subsection, the report shall be furnished to the
Department of Corrections with the judgment and sentence.  Any
evaluation report submitted to the court pursuant to this subsection
shall be handled in a manner which will keep such report

this subsection shall be construed to prohibit the court from
ordering judgment and sentence in the event the defendant fails or
refuses to comply with an order of the court to obtain the
evaluation required by this subsection.
C.  When sentencing a person convicted of a crime, the court
shall first consider a program of restitution for the victim, as
well as imposition of a fine or incarceration of the offender.  The
provisions of paragraph 1 of subsection A of this section shall not
apply to defendants being sentenced upon their third or subsequent
to their third conviction of a felony.  Provided, the court may
waive these prohibitions upon written application of the district
attorney.  Both the application and the waiver shall be made part of
the record of the case.
D.  When sentencing a person convicted of a crime, the judge
shall consider any victim impact statements if submitted to the
jury, or the judge in the event a jury is waived.
E.  Probation, for purposes of subsection A of this section, is
a procedure by which a defendant found guilty of a crime, whether
upon a verdict or plea of guilty or upon a plea of nolo contendere,
is released by the court subject to conditions imposed by the court
and subject to supervision by the Department of Corrections, a
private supervision provider or other person designated by the
court.  Such supervision shall be initiated upon an order of
probation from the court, and shall not exceed two (2) years, unless
a petition alleging a violation of any condition of deferred
judgment or seeking revocation of the suspended sentence is filed
during the supervision, or as otherwise provided by law.  In the
case of a person convicted of a sex offense, supervision shall begin
immediately upon release from incarceration or if parole is granted
and shall not be limited to two (2) years.  Provided further, any
supervision provided for in this section may be extended for a
period not to exceed the expiration of the maximum term or terms of

the sentence upon a determination by the court or the Division of
Probation and Parole of the Department of Corrections that the best
interests of the public and the release will be served by an
extended period of supervision.
F.  The Department of Corrections, or such other agency as the
court may designate, shall be responsible for the monitoring and

by subparagraphs a, c and d of paragraph 1 of subsection A of this
section, and shall ensure that restitution payments are forwarded to
the victim and that service assignments are properly performed.

subject to funds available through appropriation by the Legislature,
to contract with counties for the administration of county Community
Service Sentencing Programs.

to this section shall be eligible to participate in a county
Program; provided, participation in county-funded Programs shall not
be limited to offenders who would otherwise be sentenced to
confinement with the Department of Corrections.
3.  The Department shall establish criteria and specifications
for contracts with counties for such Programs.  A county may apply
to the Department for a contract for a county-funded Program for a
specific period of time.  The Department shall be responsible for
ensuring that any contracting county complies in full with
specifications and requirements of the contract.  The contract shall
set appropriate compensation to the county for services to the
Department.
4.  The Department is hereby authorized to provide technical
assistance to any county in establishing a Program, regardless of
whether the county enters into a contract pursuant to this
subsection.  Technical assistance shall include appropriate
staffing, development of community resources, sponsorship,
supervision and any other requirements.
5.  The Department shall annually make a report to the Governor,
the President Pro Tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House

offenders, the success rates of each Program according to criteria
established by the Department and the costs of each Program.

submit to testing within thirty (30) days of sentencing either to
the Department of Corrections or to the county sheriff or other
peace officer as directed by the court.  Defendants who are
sentenced to a term of incarceration shall submit to testing in
accordance with Section 530.1 of Title 57 of the Oklahoma Statutes,
for those defendants who enter the custody of the Department of
Corrections or to the county sheriff, for those defendants sentenced
to incarceration in a county jail.  Convicted individuals who have
previously submitted to DNA testing under this section and for whom
a valid sample is on file in the OSBI Combined DNA Index System
(CODIS) Database at the time of sentencing shall not be required to
submit to additional testing.  Except as required by the Sex
Offenders Registration Act, a deferred judgment does not require
submission to DNA testing.
Any person who is incarcerated in the custody of the Department
of Corrections after July 1, 1996, and who has not been released
before January 1, 2006, shall provide a blood or saliva sample prior
to release.  Every person subject to DNA testing after January 1,
2006, whose sentence does not include a term of confinement with the

Department of Corrections shall submit a blood or saliva sample.
Every person subject to DNA testing who is sentenced to unsupervised
probation or otherwise not supervised by the Department of
Corrections shall submit for blood or saliva testing to the sheriff
of the sentencing county.
J.  Samples of blood or saliva for DNA testing required by
subsection I of this section shall be taken by employees or
contractors of the Department of Corrections, peace officers, or the
county sheriff or employees or contractors of the sheriff’s office.
The individuals shall be properly trained to collect blood or saliva
samples.  Persons collecting blood or saliva for DNA testing
pursuant to this section shall be immune from civil liabilities
arising from this activity.  All collectors of DNA samples shall
ensure the collection of samples are mailed to the Oklahoma State
Bureau of Investigation within ten (10) days of the time the subject
appears for testing or within ten (10) days of the date the subject
comes into physical custody to serve a term of incarceration.  All
collectors of DNA samples shall use sample kits provided by the OSBI
and procedures promulgated by the OSBI.  Persons subject to DNA
testing who are not received at the Lexington Assessment and
Reception Center shall be required to pay a fee of Fifteen Dollars
($15.00) to the agency collecting the sample for submission to the
OSBI Combined DNA Index System (CODIS) Database.  Any fees collected
pursuant to this subsection shall be deposited in the revolving
account or the service fee account of the collection agency or
department.
K.  When sentencing a person who has been convicted of a crime
that would subject that person to the provisions of the Sex
Offenders Registration Act, neither the court nor the district
attorney shall be allowed to waive or exempt such person from the
registration requirements of the Sex Offenders Registration Act.
