- (a) Section 840-6.9 of Title 74 of the Oklahoma Statutes states that the Commissioners may levy an administrative fine not to exceed five thousand dollars against any person, whether subject to the provisions of the merit system or in unclassified service, who after proper notice fails or refuses, within a reasonable period of time, to implement a written order of the Commission. Such fine shall be assessed against the person who violates the order and shall not be paid by any monies of the employing entity in which the person is employed or serves.(b) The Executive Director may file a request with the Commissioners in accordance with this section after providing the person written notice of the actions the Executive Director may take. The party shall be afforded an opportunity to respond and provide additional evidence to support his or her position.(c) For purposes of this section, "reasonable time" means, when the order does not fix a time for performance of the action, such time as is necessary, conveniently, to do what the order requires to be done, as soon as the circumstances will permit.
