On December 3, 2020, the Presiding Judge of the District Court of Oklahoma County, issued the following Administrative Order in response to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak:
"Due to the upcoming holiday season and the continued COVID-19 pandemic, in order to reduce the risk of infection, only emergency hearings shall be conducted from Monday, December 21, 2020 through Thursday, December 31, 2020. With the exception of VPO (protective orders), FED (forcible entry and detainer / eviction), or any other case type that must be set within a statutory deadline, any non-emergency hearings already set on those days shall be continued. One judge shall be available from each Division to handle any emergency matters that may arise. To the extent possible, authorized participation formats (BlueJeans, etc.) should be utilized to conduct proceedings."
