Under 25 O.S. § 1506.7, the Oklahoma Attorney General can use subpoena authority to gather evidence in support of civil rights investigations, which may include housing-related complaints filed by tenants. This means that when a tenant raises a complaint that triggers an investigation, the Attorney General has tools to compel the production of relevant records or testimony from any party. Tenants who believe their rights have been violated may wish to contact a tenant-rights organization or the Attorney General's office to understand how this investigative authority could apply to their situation.
