Under Oklahoma law, an insurer wants to nonrenew a homeowners policy for reasons outside those enumerated in 36 O.S. § 3639.1. What is the general minimum written notice period required before the policy's nonrenewal is effective?
A. 30 days
B. 60 days
C. 180 days

- C: 180 days significantly overstates Oklahoma's general nonrenewal notice requirement.
- D: 10 days is the shorter notice period tied to cancellations for the specific reasons enumerated in 36 O.S. § 3639.1, not the general nonrenewal rule.

- A: The 25/50/25 figures represent three separate split limits, not a single combined limit with no property damage coverage.
- B: This reverses the per-person and per-accident bodily injury figures; the per-accident limit is the larger $50,000 figure, not the per-person figure.
- C: The third figure in Oklahoma's minimum limits is property damage liability, not medical payments coverage.
