NOTICE: THIS OPINION HAS NOT BEEN RELEASED FOR PUBLICATION IN THE PERMANENT LAW REPORTS.
UNTIL RELEASED, IT IS SUBJECT TO REVISION OR WITHDRAWAL.
On June 14th, 2013, the Oklahoma Supreme Court in Conference approved the following amendments to the Oklahoma Supreme Court Rules, Okla. Stat. tit. 12, ch. 15, app. 1, by the following vote:
NOT VOTING: Kauger, Gurich, JJ.
These amendments are effective August 1, 2013.
DONE BY ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT this 1st day of July, 2013.
(a) Title and Citation. These rules shall be known as the Oklahoma Supreme Court Rules, and may be cited "Okla.Sup.Ct.R. [Rule Number]."
(b) Scope and Effective Date. These rules govern proceedings in the Oklahoma Supreme Court and in the Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals. These rules also have application to certain proceedings in lower tribunals which are incident to appeal or review from decisions of such tribunals.
The rules of general application, Part I of these Rules, shall apply to all proceedings before the Court of Civil Appeals and the Supreme Court.
These rules shall govern all proceedings commenced in the Oklahoma Supreme Court on and after January 1, 1997. In proceedings pending on the effective date, the parties shall comply with these rules to the extent possible.
(c) Unsettled Procedure. Any point of practice or procedure which stands unsettled by statutory or decisional law and is not specifically addressed by these rules will be resolved by the Supreme Court as the orderly administration of legal process may require.
(d) Review of Online District Court Dockets. The court may review information found on Oklahoma district court appearance dockets posted on the World Wide Web, such as on www.oscn.net or www.odcr.com, or on the Oklahoma Unified Case Management System (OUCMS) in order to enhance the court's ability to inquire into and protect its jurisdiction. The court's present-day capacity to conduct an exploratory review of district court records does not diminish one iota the parties' duty to provide for this court an adequate record for corrective relief by appeal or otherwise to comply with these Rules.
(e) Electronic Filing, Service, and Signature.
Compliance with these Oklahoma Supreme Court Rrules and the Rules for Electronic Filing in the Oklahoma Courts is required. In case of failure to comply with any rule or order of the Court, the Court may continue or dismiss a cause, reverse or affirm the judgment appealed, render judgment, strike a filing, assess costs or take any other action it deems proper.
In computing any time period as prescribed by these rules the first day shall be excluded and the last included to complete the period. When the last day of the period so computed falls on a day when the court clerk's office at which the act is to be performed or the instrument is to be filed is not open during the full business day (until 4:00 p.m.), the period shall stand extended to include the next ensuing full business day. 12 O.S.Supp.1998 § 2006. The additional time of three (3) days granted by 12 O.S.Supp.1998 § 2006(D) is not applicable to the time periods described in these rules, except that the three day period will apply in computing the time to file a post-trial motion in district court after having been served with the judgment, decree or final order by mail as prescribed in 12 O.S.Supp.1998 § 990.2(C). When the period of time prescribed or allowed is less than eleven (11) days, intermediate legal holidays and any other day when the office of the Supreme Court Clerk does not remain open for business until the regularly scheduled closing time, shall be excluded from the computation.
