Are monthly reports private?

• A. Yes
• B. No
• C. They are private but accessible to the court
• D. Only with written consent

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is that monthly reports filed with a state agency are generally public records. In Oklahoma, government records are open to the public under the Open Records Act unless a specific exemption applies. Monthly reports show how a licensee is operating and performing, so they’re kept as part of the public file rather than kept private. Access isn’t limited to court use and doesn’t require written consent from the filer; members of the public can usually request them, with any required redactions applied where law dictates. So, monthly reports are not private.
