Bankruptcy court

Western District of Oklahoma

The Western District of Oklahoma is the federal bankruptcy court for 40 counties in Oklahoma.

Divisions and counties served

Each county below is assigned to a division by the court’s own order or local rule.

Bankruptcy venue is governed by 28 U.S.C. § 1408, not by county alone. It can rest on domicile, residence, a principal place of business, or principal assets in the United States, measured over the 180 days before filing — so a recent move can change which district is available. Confirm venue before filing.
