A. The trust funds created under Section 152 of this title

been paid.

B. If the party receiving any money under Section 152 of this

title is an entity having the characteristics of limited liability

pursuant to law, such entity and the natural persons having the

legally enforceable duty for the management of the entity shall be

liable for the proper application of such trust funds and subject to

punishment under Section 1451 of Title 21 of the Oklahoma Statutes;

provided, however, if the value of the property embezzled is Fifteen

Thousand Dollars ($15,000.00) or more, the party shall, upon

the filing of such a lien release the holder of such funds from the

obligations created under this section or Section 152 of this title.
