§43-111.3.


    A.  When a noncustodial parent has been granted visitation rights
and those rights are denied or otherwise interfered with by the
custodial parent, in addition to the remedy provided in subsection B
of Section 111.1 of Title 43 of the Oklahoma Statutes, the
noncustodial parent may file with the court clerk a motion for
enforcement of visitation rights.  The motion shall be filed on a
form provided by the court clerk.  Upon filing of the motion, the
court shall immediately:
    1.  Issue ex parte an order for mediation; or
    2.  Set a hearing on the motion, which shall be not more than
twenty-one (21) days after the filing of the motion.
    B.  Within five (5) days of termination of mediation ordered
pursuant to paragraph 1 of subsection A of this section, the mediator
shall submit the record of termination and a summary of the parties'
agreement, if any, to the court.  Upon receipt of the record of
termination, the court shall enter an order in accordance with the
parties' agreement, if any, or set the matter for hearing, which
shall be not more than ten (10) days after the record of termination
is received by the court.
    C.  Notice of a hearing pursuant to subsection A or B of this
section shall be given to all interested parties by certified mail,
return receipt requested, or as ordered by the court.
    D.  If the court finds that visitation rights of the noncustodial
parent have been unreasonably denied or otherwise interfered with by
the custodial parent, the court shall enter an order providing for
one or more of the following:
    1.  A specific visitation schedule;
    2.  Compensating visitation time for the visitation denied or
otherwise interfered with, which time shall be of the same type (e.g.
holiday, weekday, weekend, summer) as the visitation denied or
otherwise interfered with, and shall be at the convenience of the
noncustodial parent;
    3.  Posting of a bond, either cash or with sufficient sureties,
conditioned upon compliance with the order granting visitation
rights;
    4.  Assessment of reasonable attorney fees, mediation costs, and
court costs to enforce visitation rights against the custodial
parent;
    5.  Attendance of one or both parents at counseling or
educational sessions which focus on the impact of visitation disputes
on children;
    6.  Supervised visitation; or
    7.  Any other remedy the court considers appropriate, which may
include an order which modifies a prior order granting child custody.
    E.  If the court finds that the motion for enforcement of
visitation rights has been unreasonably filed or pursued by the
noncustodial parent, the court may assess reasonable attorney fees,
mediation costs, and court costs against the noncustodial parent.
    F.  Final disposition of a motion filed pursuant to this section
shall take place no later than forty-five (45) days after filing of
the motion.
    G.  The Office of the Court Administrator shall develop the form
required by subsection A of this section to be used for a motion to
enforce visitation rights.
