Summary

The bill shields Oklahoma state agencies and local governments from being held liable if a newspaper fails to publish a legal notice on time, as long as the agency met all required deadlines. It also allows those entities to use electronic publication alongside traditional newspaper notices when done in good faith. This change aims to reduce legal risk and modernize notice‑giving practices.
