Full text of Oklahoma Oklahoma Statutes § 12-614 — Trial before referee - Report, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 12-614. Trial before referee - Report
A trial before referees is conducted in the same manner as a
trial by the court. They have the same power as the court to summon
and enforce the attendance of witnesses, to administer all necessary
oaths in the trial of the case, and to grant adjournments, upon such
trial. They must state the facts found and the conclusions of law
separately, and their decisions must be given, and may be excepted
to and reviewed in like manner. The report of the referees upon the
whole issue stands as the decision of the court, and judgment may be
entered thereon in the same manner as if the action had been tried
by the court. When the referee is to report the facts, the report
has the effect of a special verdict.
R.L. 1910, § 5020.
