Courthouse Security Badge Update:

With input from the Tulsa County Courthouse staff and Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office, the oath required for the security badge now includes the following stipulation:

"I understand that I must comply with all laws and rules, including Rules of Professional Conduct and all rules of the Fourteenth Judicial District Court, and that my failure to do so will result in the loss of my access badge. In addition, without limiting the foregoing, I understand and agree that any of the following will result in the loss of my access badge: (a) any conduct that results in a finding of contempt of court; (b) any act or threat of violence against or physical confrontation with any person in the courthouse; (c) any offense or conduct that the Sheriff deems a direct or indirect threat to the security of the courthouse; (d) any offense or conduct that is a direct or indirect threat to the operations or peaceful environment of the courthouse; (e) any open warrant for any level of offense; (f) any conviction for any crime; (g) failure to follow directions of courthouse security personnel; (h) disbarment or suspension by the Oklahoma Bar Association, or any other State or Federal Bar Association. In accordance with the foregoing, I will immediately surrender my access badge upon request of the Sheriff or Sheriff’s deputy in charge of security, the Court Administrator, or any Judge of the Court."
