Oklahoma attorney general files proposed consent decree in competency restoration class action
The attorney general's office said some pretrial defendants had sat in county jails for over a year without restoration services. The proposed consent decree sets out a strategic plan to speed those services and resolve cases on time.
Drummond framed the deal as saving the state money and delivering justice to crime victims, and he hoped state leaders would approve it. The proposal was later held up by the Contingency Review Board and the state mental health commissioner.
This is the first public record of the settlement that was eventually revised and entered in 2025.
