Notwithstanding any provision of Section 18 or 19 of Title 22 of

the Oklahoma Statutes, when a charge is dismissed because the court

finds that the defendant has been arrested or charged as a result of

the defendant’s name or other identification having been

appropriated or used without the defendant’s consent or

authorization by another person, the court dismissing the charge

may, upon motion of the district attorney or the defendant or upon

the court’s own motion, enter an order for expungement of law

enforcement and court records relating to the charge. The order

shall contain a statement that the dismissal and expungement are

ordered pursuant to this section. An order entered pursuant to this
