Supreme Court of Oklahoma

Sanders v. Turn Key Health Clinics

March 11, 2025566 P.3d 591

Summary

The Oklahoma Supreme Court held that the interlocutory order dismissing the plaintiff’s petition was not immediately appealable, so appellate jurisdiction was lacking; it vacated and withdrew the Court of Civil Appeals’ opinion, recast the petition as an application for original jurisdiction and a writ of prohibition, and interpreted the Governmental Tort Claims Act to make licensed medical professionals under contract with governmental entities employees of the state.
