Section 515:15-11-5 - Victims or Victim Representative appearances and communication with the Board

(a)Victim or Victim Representative appearances. During a Stage Two review, a portion of each meeting will be set aside for the members of the Board to hear from and ask questions of the Victims or Victim Representatives. No more than two Victims and/or Victim Representatives per Inmate may appear and only one will be allowed to address the Board for a maximum of five (5) minutes or a reasonable time limit at the Chair's discretion, provided that the allotted time shall be equal between Trial Officials, Delegates, and Victims and/or Victim Representatives. In cases in which there are multiple Victims, the Board may hear from more than one Victim and/or Victim Representative at the discretion of the Chair and within the time constraints of the meeting.

(b)Confirmation number. In order to speak before the Board, a Victim or Victim Representative must obtain a confirmation number from the Board's administrative office. The deadline to obtain a confirmation number is 4:00 p.m. on the last full business day preceding the Board meeting at which the Board will consider the application.

(c)Confidentiality. Any Victim or Victim Representative that appears at the meeting and addresses the Board waives confidentiality concerning their appearance at the meeting and the statements made during the meeting. Confidentiality is maintained when written protests or support communications are provided.

(d)In lieu of attendance. As an alternative option to attending, a Victim or Victim Representative may provide written protest or support communication to the administrative office of the Board or via email at BoardCommunications@ppb.ok.gov.

(e)Submission deadline for written correspondence. The deadline for submission of emails or written correspondence is the close of business of the Board's administrative office on the Tuesday prior to the Board meeting on which the Stage Two review is docketed.
