Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust Fund v. Stitt

Summary

The Oklahoma Supreme Court held that House Bill 2783, which made TSET board members serve at the pleasure of their appointing authorities, violates Article X, Section 40(D) of the Oklahoma Constitution’s fixed‑term requirement, affirmed the court’s original jurisdiction to issue a declaratory judgment, and found that the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust Fund has standing to challenge the statute.
