Supreme Court of Oklahoma
Conner v. State
February 25, 20252025 OK 12
Summary
The Court held that the Governmental Tort Claims Act's notice provisions apply to employment-discrimination claims brought under the Oklahoma Anti-Discrimination Act against a governmental entity. It concluded that amendments to both statutes eliminated the previously recognized conflict concerning notice and that timely notice is jurisdictional. The Court reversed the denial of the motion to dismiss and remanded for the trial court to determine whether Conner complied with the notice requirements.
