concurring specially.

1 I concur in this case, but I write separately to point out that the requirement of the sworn report or affidavit of the law enforcement officer is not limited to the review proceeding in the district court, 'That requirement of proof also exists for the initial revocation, see 47 O.8. §§ 753 and 754, and *1169the administrative hearing stage if one is requested.

{1 Plaintiffs/Appellants Brock A. Werdel, Clark R. Chambers, Joseph E. Howard, Titus L. West, Jeffrey T. Graves, Joseph'P. Wagner, Anthony J. Spigener, Michael A. Carroll, and Brent E. Shouse, for themselves and all others similarly situated (Plaintiffs), seek review of the trial court's order denying their motion for class certification, denying their motion for summary judgment and granting the motion for summary judgment of Defendant/Appellee State of Oklahoma, ex rel. Department of Public Safety (DPS), in Plaintiffs' action to expunge the records of their driver's license revocations and for restitution of the fees they paid to reinstate their driver's licenses. In this appeal, Plaintiffs assert the trial court erred as a matter of law and fact in denying their motion to certify the class action, in denying their motion for summary judgment and in granting the motion for summary judgment of DPS.

T 2 Plaintiffs commenced the instant action on behalf of themselves and others similarly situation, and alleged DPS had revoked their driver's licenses and required the payment of fees to reinstate their driver's licenses based on the deficient reports of the arresting officers for the offense of driving while under the influence of alcohol. Plaintiffs sought certification of a class composed of all. others similarly situated, expungement of the ree-ords of their revocations and restitution of the fees they paid for reinstatement of their driver's, licenses and installation of ignition interlock devices.

13 DPS filed a motion to dismiss. Defendant asserted that Plaintiffs had failed to state a plausible claim 'sufficient to support class action certification, and that, as a result of the agreed and unappealed final orders of the district courts sustaining the administrative orders of revocation of Plaintiffs' driver's licenses with modification, the doctrines of issue and claim preclusion barred Plaintiffs' challenges. The trial court denied the motion to dismiss, and deferred ruling on the motion to certify class pending a determination of the existence of a plausible class claim pursuant to 12 0.8.1

T4 DPS then filed its motion for summary judgment. DPS attached evidentiary materials demonstrating that Plaintiffs Werdel, Chambers, Howard, West. and Graves executed consent judgments in the district courts agreeing to revocation of their driver's licenses with modification after administrative review, that they had discharged the period of revocation and that they had obtained reinstatement of their driver's licenses. DPS also attached evidentiary materials demonstrating that Plaintiffs - Spigener, Shouse, and Carroll had either failed to ex-hbaust, or had yet to exhaust, their administrative remedies, and that Wagner's revocation had been set aside, but that he had also pled guilty to two other alcohol-related driving offenses.

5 DPS first argued that it possessed the statutory authority to revoke the driver's license of a person arrested for driving under the influence upon the person's failure of, or refusal to take, a test for blood-aleohol pursuant 47 O.S. §§ 758 and 754. DPS consequently argued the complained-of deficiency in the notices of revocation, offered as support for the orders of revocation, which omitted the "sworn report from a law enforcement officer that the officer had reasonable grounds to believe the arrested person had been operating or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol as prohibited by law" required by § 754(C), and noted by the Court of Civil Appeals in Tucker v. DPS, 2014 OK CIV APP 45, 326 P.3d 542, and Roulston v. DPS, 2014 OK CIV APP 46, 324 P.3d 1261, did not render its administrative orders revoking Plaintiffs' driver's licenses void and subject to vacation or expungement. DPS *1165further argued that the exemption provisions of the Oklahoma Governmental Tort Claims Act, 51 0.8. §§ 151 et seq., § 155(2), (4), (5) and (12), absolved it from liability to repay the fees collected to reinstate the Plaintiffs' driver's lHeenses, or for damages related to the costs of installing ignition interlock devices paid to third parties, and further, because Plaintiffs paid the reinstatement fees without protest, 62 0.8. § 206 barred recovery of those fees.

T6 Plaintiffs filed a motion for summary judgment and response to the motion for summary judgment of DPS.2 Plaintiffs asserted that, according to the holdings in Tucker and Roulston, the orders revoking their driver's licenses were facially defective, void ab initio and subject to vacation at any time, that their failure to exhaust administrative remedies was consequently irrelevant, and for those reasons, the records of the revocations should 'be expunged. Further, said Plaintiffs, because the revocation orders were void, DPS should be held Hable to repay the fees collected to reinstate their wrongfully revoked driver's licenses, as well as the fees paid for installation of ignition interlock devices as a consequence of the void revocation orders. '

T7 DPS filed a reply to Plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment. DPS argued the deficiency in the officers affidavits recognized in Tucker and Roulston related solely to the evidence to support the revocations, not its authority to revoke, and that such deficiency rendered the revocation orders merely voidable and subject to attack only in a timely, direct appeal to the district court. DPS again argued the final orders of revocation with modification to which some of the Plaintiffs agreed precluded the instant challenges by force of res judicata.

18 On consideration of the parties' arguments .and submissions, but without expressed findings of fact or conclusions of law, the trial court denied Plaintiffs motion to certify the class action, denied the Plaintiffs motion for summary judgment and granted' the motion for summary judgment of DPS. Plaintiffs appeal, and the matter stands submitted on the trial court record.3

1 10 We first observe that a person arrested for operation of a motor vehicle while under the influence of aleohol or other intoxicating substance and served by the arresting officer with a notice and order of the revocation of his or her driver's license may seek administrative review of the order of revocaetion before a DPS hearing officer. 47 0.8. 2011 § 754(D)-(G). The seope of the administrative hearing "shall cover the issues of whether the officer had reasonable grounds to believe the person had been operating or was in actual physical control of a vehicle upon the public roads, highways, streets, turnpikes or other public place of this state *1166while. under the influence of alcohol, any other intoxicating substance, or the combined influence of aleohol and any other intoxicating substance as prohibited by law, and whether the person was placed under arrest." 47 0.8. § 754(P).

T11 If dissatisfied by the administrative decision, an arrestee may seek further review in the district court by petition filed within thirty days of the administrative decision. 47 0.8. § 6-211. "[Oln district court review, DPS bears the burden of proof by a preponderance of the evidence." Haley v. State ex rel. Dept. of Public Safety, 2005 OK CIV APP 82, ¶ 8, 123 P.3d 31, 34. And see, Andrews v. State ex rel. Dept. of Public Safety, 2014 OK CIV APP 19, ¶ 12, 320 P.3d 27, 29.4 "At a hearing on a revocation by the Department pursuant to the implied consent laws as provided in Sections 6-205.1, 753 and 754 of this title, the court shall not consider the merits of the revocation action unless a written request for an administrative hearing was timely submitted to the Department and the person actually exercised the opportunity to appear as provided in Section 754 of this title and the Department entered an order sustaining the revocation." 47 O.S. § 6-211(F)

112 Thereafter, "[aln appeal may be taken by the person or by the Department from the order or judgment of the district court. to the Supreme Court of the State of Oklahoma as otherwise provided by law." 47 0.8. § 6-211(M).

{13 In its entirety, § 754(C) of t1t1e 47 0.8., provides:

Upon réceipt of a written blood or breath test report reflecting that the arrested person, if under twenty-one (21) years of age, had any measurable quantity of alcohol in the person's blood or breath, or, if the arrested person is twenty-one (21) years of age or older, a blood or breath alcohol concentration of eight-hundredths (0.08) or more, accompanied by a sworn report from a law enforcement officer that the officer had reasonable grounds to believe the arrested person had been operating or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of aleohol as prohibited by law, the Department shall revoke or deny the driving privilege of the arrested person for a period as provided by Section 6-205.1 of this title. Revocation or denial of the driving privilege of the arrested person shall become effective thirty (30) days after the arrested person is given written notice thereof by the officer as provided in this section or by the Department as provided in Section 2-116 of this title. _|

Plaintiffs argued below that § 754(C) conditioned the jurisdiction of DPS to revoke a driver's license on two requisites, Le., "a written blood or breath test report ..., accompanied by a sworn report from a law enforcement officer that the officer had reasonable grounds to believe the arrested person had been operating or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol as prohibited by law." For support of this proposition, Plaintiffs cited Browning v. DPS, 1991 OK CIV APP 19, 812 P.2d 1372, where the Court of Appeals stated:

DPS's threshold jurisdiction to issue a license revocation order is established upon receipt of an "Officer's Affidavit and Notice of Revocation" which facially discloses two items of information: (1) A breath test result of at least 0.10 and (2) the arresting officer's sworn affidavit showing probable cause to believe the ar-restee had committed an alcohol-related driving offense.

1991 OK CIV APP 19, ¶ 9, 812 P.2d at 1374. (Citations omitted.) (Emphasis added.)

T 14 In our view, however, § 754(C) does not concern jurisdiction as that term is ordinarily used to describe the powers of a court *1167to exercise jurisdickion over a person, or jurisdiction over the subject matter of a controversy, or the jurisdictional power to render a particular judgment. See, e.g., Vaughan v. Graves, 2012 OK 113, ¶ 11, 291 P.3d 623, 626, fn. 2.5 Rather, in our view, § 754(C) concerns and grants DPS the authority to revoke the driver's license of a person arrested for operation of a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or other intoxicating substance, but conditions the exercise of that authority, when timely challenged in a review proceeding in the district court, upon the presentation of evidence by DPS demonstrating both (1) a breath or blood test result showing the arres-tee's blood/aleohol concentration in excess of the statutory maximum, and, (2) as a substitute for the testimony of the arresting officer, the sworn report of the arresting officer establishing the officer's reasonable belief the arrestee had operated a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or other intoxicating substance.

T15 We are persuaded in this view by prior holdings of the Oklahoma appellate courts. In Chase v. State ex rel. Dep't of Public Safety, 1990 OK 78, 795 P.2d 1048, the Oklahoma Supreme Court construed the nearly identical statutory predecessor to § 754(C) as describing the "administrative documentation" required to sustain a revocation, and held the failure of DPS to produce the proper "statutory materials" to support a revocation order in a timely direct appeal to the district court rendered an order of revocation subject to vacation:

Two statutory prerequisites for DPS revocation of the license here in dispute are: (1) a written report that the driver's breath test showed an alcohol concentration of at least 0.10 and (2) the enforcement officer's sworn report "that he had reasonable grounds to believe the arrested person had been driving or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle upon the public roads ... while under the influence of alcohol. ..."....

DPS concedes that the sworn report of an enforcement officer, which § 754(8) [now § 754(C)] expressly mandates, is absent from the DPS paperwork and from the record in this case. Although there is an exhibit before us entitled "Officer's Affidavit and Notice of Revocation," the name of the person designated in this document as the affiant differs from that of the individ-val whose signature appears on it. This patent deficiency in the statutorily required DPS material does indeed make the Department's revocation order vulnerable to invalidation, on timely appeal, for Failure to meet the minimum legislatively prescribed standards for the DPS paperwork on which its administrative action must be rested.

We therefore hold that when, on appeal to the district court, the trial judge finds a DPS revocation order was issued on administrative documentation that fails to meet the minimum standards mandated by the applicable statute, the order should be set aside as fatally flawed.

1990 OK 78, ¶¶ 4-6, 795 P.2d at 1049-1050. (Footnotes omitted.) (Emphasis added.) In recognition of this evidentiary burden, the Court of Civil Appeals said in Tucker:

... Because the Officer's Affidavit did not include the sworn report as required by statute as to the Officer's reasonable grounds to believe the arrested person had been driving or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under 'the influence of aleohol, the evidence on which the administrative revocation action rested is patently deficient. In light of the Affidavit's fatal deficiency and foilure to meet the statutory prerequisite for DPS revocation, the trial court correctly set aside the DPS revocation order.

2014 OK CIV APP 45, ¶ 11, 326 P.3d at 544. (Emphasis added.) And in Rowiston, relying on Chase, the Court of Civil Appeals repeated:

... Because the Officer's Affidavit did not include the sworn report as required by statute as to the Officer's reasonable grounds to believe the arrested person had been driving or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the *1168influence of alcohol, the evidence on which the administrative revocation action rested is patently deficient. Just as in Chase, we find the Affidavit upon which the revocation order rests fatally flowed as a matter of law and thus, that order was properly set aside by the trial court.

2014 OK CIV APP 46, ¶ 11, 324 P.3d at 1263-1264, (Emphasis added.) ‘

1 16 The phrase, "sworn report," as used in § 754(C), necessarily refers to the evidentio-ry facts for which it is offered to prove. The "sworn report" is evidence of the arresting officer's reasonable belief the arrestee had operated a motor vehicle while under the influence of aleohol or other intoxicating substance. The "officer's affidavit," including the "sworn report," represents a substitute for the in-person testimony of the arresting officer. When a revocation is timely challenged in a review proceeding in the district court pursuant to § 6-211, DPS 'must produce the "sworn report" as evidence to support the order of revocation, and if DPS fails in this evidentiary burden, the district court should set aside the order of revocation as without - sufficient - evidentiary - support. Chase, 1990 OK 78, ¶¶ 5-6, 795 P.2d at 1049-1050; Tucker, 2014 OK CIV APP 45, ¶ 11, 326 P.3d at 544; Roulston, 2014 OK CIV APP 46, ¶ 11, 324 P.3d at 1263-1264.

{17 As a matter of evidence, we therefore hold the omission from the officer's affidavit of the "sworn report," stating the arresting officer's reasonable belief the ar-restee had operated a motor vehicle while under the influence of aleohol or other intoxicating substance, does not render the underlying order of revocation void. Rather, we hold such an omission constitutes only an evidentiary flow which renders the tion order only voidable and subject to vacation only in a timely appeal to the district court authorized by 47 0.8. § 6-211.

118 Having so held, and in the present case, some of the Plaintiffs entered agreed-to orders in the district court sustaining the revocation of their driver's licenses with modification.6 Having consented to en'try of the unappealed and now-final judgments sustaining the revocation of their driver's licenses, they have waived any complaint concerning the sufficiency of the evidence to support their revocations.

119 Further, according to DPS, the remaining named Plaintiffs either have yet to exhaust, or failed to exhaust, their administrative remedies. Of those Plaintiffs who did not seek administrative review, or, having obtained administrative review, failed to seek further review in the district court, they too have waived any complaint concerning the sufficiency of the evidence to support their revocations. Of those Plaintiffs whose administrative review is pending, they may yet seek judicial review of the administrative decision in an appeal to the district court pursuant to § 6-211, but until the district court rules in each of their respective cases, any complaint in this case is clearly premature.

$20 We therefore hold the trial court properly granted the motion for summary judgment of DPS and denied the motion for summary judgment of Plaintiffs, Further, to the extent the trial court deferred ruling on class certification pending a determination of the existence of a plausible claim under 12 O.S. §2023(B), but determined Plaintiffs stated no such plausible claim in granting the motion for summaty judgment of DPS, we further hold the trial court did not err in dénying the Plaintiffs' motion to certify class.

{21 The ordérs of the trial court are therefore AFFIRMED.
