Section Art VIII Sec 1 - Annual Dues
Cite as: O.S. §, __ __
Section 1. ANNUAL DUES. The annual dues for each member of the Association shall be based upon the financial requirements of the Association including maintenance of an adequate reserve fund for contingencies and emergencies.
Until otherwise provided the annual dues for each
active member shall be $275.00 per year; except that dues for active members who
have been admitted to practice in any State less than three (3) years, as of the
first day of January of the dues paying year, shall be $137.50 for each such
year. All dues shall be due and payable, on or before January 2 of each year, to
the Executive Director of the
Association. Persons admitted to the Bar of this State after January 2 of any
year shall not be liable for dues until January 2 of the following year. Nothing
in these rules shall prevent the establishment of Sections with the approval of
the Board of Governors, nor the charging of voluntary dues to members of any
such section.
Active OBA Members who are in an active duty and deployed status serving outside of the United States or one of its territories with the Armed Forces of the United States in a combat zone or receiving "Imminent Danger Pay" (Combat Pay) or "hardship duty pay" in any given year may request that dues be waived for that year. A request for a waiver of dues, along with sufficient supporting documentation of service, shall be submitted to the Executive Director of the Oklahoma Bar Association as soon as reasonably practical. Members requesting such dues waiver shall have the right to appeal any administrative decisions made by the Executive Director to the Board of Governors of the Oklahoma Bar Association and ultimately to the Oklahoma Supreme Court. In the event the member is not able to submit the request personally, such request can be made by a family member, law partner or other such person having authority to act on behalf of the member.
