Okla. Stat. tit. 30, § 30-7-106

refusal by standby guardian.

A. The authority of a standby guardian approved by the court

may be revoked by the qualified parent by filing a notice of

revocation with the court. The notice of revocation shall identify

the standby guardian or alternate standby guardian to which the

revocation will apply. A copy of the revocation shall also be

delivered to the standby guardian whose authority is revoked and any

alternate standby guardian who may then be authorized to act.

B. At any time following his or her approval by the court, a

standby guardian may decline to serve by filing a written statement

of refusal with the court and having the statement personally served

on the qualified parent and any alternate standby guardian who may

then be authorized to act.

C. When a written designation has been executed, but is not yet

effective because the triggering event has not yet occurred, the

parent may revoke or the prospective standby guardian may refuse the

designation by notifying the other party in writing. A written

designation may also be revoked by the execution of a subsequent

inconsistent designation.

D. When a standby guardian’s authority becomes effective upon

the occurrence of a triggering event of the qualified parent, the

standby guardian’s authority to act on behalf of the qualified

parent continues even though the qualified parent is no longer

unavailable, unless the qualified parent notifies the standby

guardian and the court, in writing, that the standby guardian’s

authority is revoked due to the expiration of the triggering event.

E. If at any time the court finds that the parent no longer

meets the definition of “qualified parent,” the court shall rescind

its approval of the standby guardian.
