Oklahoma Criminal Laws

There are main types of criminal offenses in Oklahoma: misdemeanors and felonies.

Like most states, misdemeanors are less serious compared to felonies. However, Oklahoma does not organize misdemeanor and felony offenses into separate categories.

As far as the ranges are concerned, a conviction for a misdemeanor is punishable by a maximum jail term of one year and a fine of no more than $500. When it comes to felonies, each felony crime carries its own penalties like a state prison sentence, as well as the loss of certain civil rights, such as the right to own/possess a firearm and vote.

How Long Can a Felony Charge Be Pending in Oklahoma?

In Oklahoma, the general statute of limitations for felonies and misdemeanors is three years. This means that prosecution for a crime must be commenced within three years after it was committed. 

In either case, a conviction can result in a permanent criminal record, which can make your life extremely difficult. This means if you attempt to find a new job, apply for school, or find a place to live, your criminal record will appear on a background check.
