Okla. Code Jud. Conduct R. 3.12
Compensation for Extrajudicial Activities
The compensation for extrajudicial activities of a judge is controlled and regulated by the Rules of the Ethics Commission or other applicable law. If a judge is permitted to accept extrajudicial compensation under those rules the judge should refrain from accepting such compensation if it would appear to a reasonable person to undermine the judge's independence, integrity or impartiality. (See Rules of Ethics Commission 20-1-9(h).
COMMENT
• [1] A judge may only accept compensation as provided by the Rules of the Ethics Commission or other applicable law. Any compensation that is permitted must be reasonable and commensurate with the task performed. A judge should be mindful, however, that judicial duties must take precedence over other activities. See Rule 2.1.
• [2] Compensation derived from extrajudicial activities is subject to public reporting under the Rules of the Ethics Commission.
