Rule 4 Clerk Of The Court Of Tax Review

The Clerk of the Oklahoma Supreme Court also handles clerk duties for the Court of Tax Review. This means one office manages the paperwork for both courts.

When someone files a complaint with the State Auditor and Inspector about tax budgets or levies, that office keeps the file at first. But once 60 days pass after the budgets and levies were filed, the whole file gets sent over to the Supreme Court Clerk. From that point on, this same clerk's office takes over the case.

After the file transfers, anyone involved in the case must file all future paperwork with the Clerk of the Appellate Courts, not the State Auditor and Inspector. This keeps everything organized in one place once the case moves forward.

The Clerk of the Court of Tax Review also has the job of notifying people when a case is moving forward. They do this using a specific form, called Form No. 2, which is outlined in Rule 11. This helps make sure everyone involved knows what's happening with their case.
