Hearings
Section 904 of the Oklahoma Statutes governing this System makes provision for an aggrieved person to come before the Board of Trustees of the Oklahoma Public Employees Retirement System to be heard. This procedure is available to appeal any administrative action of the agency. A request for a hearing must be submitted in writing to the Executive Director at the OPERS office in Oklahoma City within 30 days of notice of the action from which the person is appealing. The request for hearing should clearly set forth the facts and the basis for the grievance, along with the relief requested.
The hearing procedures can be found in the Permanent Rules at 590:1-1-6. A hearing examiner will conduct the evidentiary hearing with the Board of Trustees issuing the Final Order. The hearing shall be conducted in accordance with the Administrative Procedures Act as provided for in 75 O.S.1991, sections 301 through 325, as amended.
This is the exclusive remedy for aggrieved persons. As a general rule, no court action can be pursued until this remedy is exhausted.
