Oklahoma state regulations dictate that records recording public activities like court documents, arrest records, marriage certificates, vehicular transgressions and more are open and available for the public, largely due to the Oklahoma Open Records Act. This data contain names, times, particulars on cases, sentences, processes and much more, and are all assumed public unless otherwise stated. People of Grand Lake Towne are able to better understand their rights thanks to these laws, and the transparency available from the release of these records maintains both criminals and legislators responsible for their actions, in turn resulting in a more open and free society for all.
