Oklahoma Criminal Law
It shall be unlawful for any person to maintain or operate a public pool or billiard hall, or any public pool or billiard table, in any incorporated city or town, without first securing a license from the district court clerk. The person applying for the license shall appear once each year and satisfy the district court clerk that he or she is a person of good moral character; that he or she has never been convicted of violating any of the laws regulating the traffic in any spirituous, vinous, fermented, or malt liquors, or any of the intoxicating beverage or low-point beer laws of this state, or convicted of violating any of the gambling laws of this state. A fee of Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) every three (3) years shall be charged for the license. Upon application, the district court clerk shall give five (5) days' notice by posting notices, one notice to be posted at the county courthouse, one notice to be served on the district attorney or the district attorney’s assistant, and three (3) notices in the city or town where the pool hall shall be located. The notice shall contain the name of the applicant and the location of the pool or billiard hall. Any citizen of the city or town may file a written protest to the issuance of the license with the district court clerk and the court shall set the matter of protest for hearing. Any person violating any provision of this section shall be punished by fine, not less than Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) nor more than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00), for each offense.
