§21-1459. Property taken under claim of title.

21 OK Stat § 21-1459 (2014) What's This?

Upon any prosecution for embezzlement it is a sufficient defense that the property was appropriated openly and avowedly, and under a claim of title preferred in good faith even though such claim is untenable. But this provision shall not excuse the retention of the property of another, to offset or pay demand held against him.
