Plain-English Summary (for reference only — not a substitute for the rule text above)
This summary is not the rule. The rule text controls.
The Administrative Office of the Courts is in charge of setting up continuing education classes for judges and justices in Oklahoma. These classes happen at every meeting of the Oklahoma Judicial Conference, and the Administrative Office can also schedule extra classes at other times during the year.
The Administrative Office also has to keep track of attendance. This means they write down which judges and justices show up for these training courses. These records help confirm that judges are meeting their required education hours.
For judges and justices, this rule means they can count on getting education credits at the regular Judicial Conference meetings. It also means their attendance gets officially logged, so there's a clear record showing they completed the required training.
