B. A person may make payment directly to the court, as allowed by law, or the court cost compliance liaison, as allowed, shall be authorized to accept payment on misdemeanor or cost-related warrants on all cases referred pursuant to Section 983 of Title 22 of the Oklahoma Statutes by various means including but not limited to payment by phone, mail, or Internet, and in any payment form including but not limited to personal, cashier's, traveler's, certified, or guaranteed bank check, postal or commercial money order, nationally recognized credit or a debit card, or other generally accepted payment form. Any payment collected and received by the court cost compliance liaison shall be paid to the court clerk of the court that issued the warrant within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the payment and proof of funds. Any payment collected and received by the court, where the court has referred the case to a court cost compliance liaison, shall be reported to the court cost compliance liaison within four (4) days of receipt of the payment. Any payment returned due to insufficient funds shall have all insufficient fund charges incurred added to the outstanding balance of the defendant. If a credit card payment taken by a court cost compliance liaison is determined to be a fraudulent use of the credit card by the payor and the payment is reversed by the credit card company or payor's bank, the court clerk shall reverse the transaction upon notification, return the payment to the court cost compliance liaison, and the court cost compliance liaison shall continue the collection process until paid. The court clerk shall add any additional fees for the reversal of the transaction plus the administration fees to the outstanding balance of the defendant. Court cost compliance liaisons shall inform individuals of their right to a cost hearing as provided in Section 983 of Title 22 of the Oklahoma Statutes.

Such payment shall serve as a written waiver of a jury trial.
