A. 1. In addition to any other penalties provided for in the Wildlife Bail Procedure Act or any other applicable law, when a person fails to comply with a wildlife citation or a sentence for a violation of wildlife laws or rules, the district court which has jurisdiction of the citation or which issued the sentence shall mail a notice to the person informing them that if they do not appear in the district court or pay all fines, court costs, assessments or fees, and any penalties imposed within thirty (30) days from the date of mailing, the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation shall be notified to begin procedures to forfeit or suspend any license, permit, stamp or other issue of the Department held by the person.
2. Upon receipt of a report from a district court of a failure to comply with a wildlife citation or sentence as set forth in paragraph 1 of this subsection the Department shall suspend or forfeit the license, permit, stamp or other issue of the Department held by the person until satisfactory evidence of compliance with the wildlife citation or sentence of the district court is furnished to the Department by the district court. Upon receipt of notification of compliance from the district court, the Department shall terminate the suspension action, unless the suspension is otherwise required.
B. Except as provided for in subsection C of this section, when the district court notifies the Department of Wildlife Conservation of a failure to comply with a wildlife citation or failure to comply with a sentence of the district, the court shall assess a reinstatement fee of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) for each charge or sentence on which the person failed to make satisfaction, regardless of the disposition of the charge for which the citation was originally issued.

The district court shall remit all reinstatement fees to the Department in accordance with the provisions of state law. The Department shall deposit the entire amount of each reinstatement fee in the Wildlife General Fund.
C.
