A. Both the State of Oklahoma and the accused may mutually terminate the deferred prosecution at any time, and the case shall proceed as if there had been no agreement. If the State of Oklahoma makes the termination decision unilaterally, it shall only do so in light of all the relevant circumstances of the case.

Disclose to the accused or the attorney for the accused the evidence supporting the decision to terminate; and 3. Afford the accused the opportunity to be heard and present evidence, and cross-examine witnesses before a judge of the district court. The accused shall have ten (10) days from the date of mailing of the notice to file a written request with the court clerk for the county in which a charge is pending for the hearing, after which the right to a hearing shall be waived. The burden shall be upon the State of Oklahoma to prove that the accused did not fulfill the conditions of the agreement, and that an information should be filed. B. On and after the effective date of this act, if an agreement is terminated by the State of Oklahoma for failure of the person to comply with the terms of the deferred prosecution agreement, the termination document and supporting documentation shall be open to the public. C. If an agreement is terminated by the State of Oklahoma and the accused is subsequently tried before a jury, the court shall instruct the jury not to consider any delay in prosecution while the accused was participating in the deferred prosecution program.
