father before or after the birth of the minor.

2. A man who is the legal husband of the mother of a minor who

is not an Indian child, as defined by the Oklahoma Indian Child

public in which he waives any legal interest in the minor, disclaims

of the document;

5. A statement that the putative father executing consent is

represented by counsel or has waived the right to counsel;

9. A statement that the putative father has been advised that

an adult adopted person born in Oklahoma, whose decree of adoption

is finalized after November 1, 1997, may obtain a copy of such

for fifteen (15) calendar days after the execution of the consent

before the notary public. To revoke the extrajudicial consent, the

consenting person must file a notice of revocation and an intent to

claim paternity, an acknowledgement of paternity, or a notice of his

desire to receive notice of adoption proceedings or proceedings to

terminate his parental rights, with the Paternity Registry of the

Department of Human Services pursuant to Section 7506-1.1 of this
the notary public. To revoke the extrajudicial consent, the

consenting person must file a notice of revocation and an intent to

claim paternity, an acknowledgement of paternity, or a notice of his

desire to receive notice of adoption proceedings or proceedings to

terminate his parental rights, with the Paternity Registry of the

Department of Human Services pursuant to Section 7506-1.1 of this

title, and must provide a copy of this notice to the birth mother at

the time of filing the notice with the Paternity Registry of the

Department of Human Services.

D. The execution of an extrajudicial consent does not

extinguish any duty of the putative father to support the mother or

the minor until the adoption is completed.

E. Where no notice of revocation is filed in the time period

specified in subsection C of this section, the execution of the

extrajudicial consent shall operate as a waiver of the consenting

person’s right to notice and participation in any adoption

proceedings or termination of parental rights proceedings regarding

the minor referenced in the extrajudicial consent.
