Agenda: Free, Prior And Informed Consent: Pathways For A New Millennium, University Of Colorado Boulder. Getches-Wilkinson Center For Natural Resources, Energy, And The Environment, University Of Colorado Boulder. School Of Law. American Indian Law Program

Free, Prior and Informed Consent: Pathways for a New Millennium (November 1)

Presented by the University of Colorado's American Indian Law Program and the Getches-Wilkinson Center for Natural Resources, Energy & the Environment.

The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), along with treaties, instruments, and decisions of international law, recognizes that indigenous peoples have the right to give "free, prior, and informed consent" to legislation and development affecting their lands, natural resources, and other interests, and to receive remedies for losses of property taken without such consent. With approximately 150 nations, including the United States, endorsing the UNDRIP, this requirement gives rise to emerging standards, obligations, and opportunities …

Western Montana Water Users Assoc., Llc V. Mission Irrigation District, David A. Bell Oct 2013

Western Montana Water Users Assoc., Llc V. Mission Irrigation District, David A. Bell

Public Land & Resources Law Review

The Western Montana Water Users challenged the authority of the Flathead Joint Control Board to enter into a Water Use Agreement with Tribal, State, and Federal governments. This procedural challenge alleged that the Joint Control Board, made up of the irrigation districts, did not have the ability under Montana statutes to act for the irrigators without a specific vote of the members and approval from the district court. Two days after receiving the case the Montana Supreme Court reversed, determining that the statutes were inapplicable and the Joint Control Board had authority to enter the agreement.

Making Matters Worse: The Safe Streets And Communities Act And The Ongoing Crisis Of Indigenous Over-Incarceration, Ryan Newell Oct 2013

Making Matters Worse: The Safe Streets And Communities Act And The Ongoing Crisis Of Indigenous Over-Incarceration, Ryan Newell

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

The Safe Streets and Communities Act (SSCA), a recent and wide-reaching piece of the Conservative Party of Canada’s tough-on-crime agenda, will exacerbate the ongoing crisis of Indigenous over-incarceration. In this article, I review the extensive literature that addresses the causes of Indigenous over-representation in the Canadian criminal justice system before assessing the impact of R v Gladue, nearly fifteen years after the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision. I analyze how the SSCA will restrict courts’ resort to Gladue, thus resulting in the incarceration of increasing numbers of Indigenous people. I then develop one avenue of constitutional challenge to the SSCA’s …

Enforcing Tribal And State Court Civil Judgments In California, Jeremy Freedman Sep 2013

Enforcing Tribal And State Court Civil Judgments In California, Jeremy Freedman

Jeremy Freedman

The purpose of this Note is to bring to light the growing need for a reciprocal approach to cross-jurisdictional enforcement of civil money judgments between California State and Indian tribal courts. In analyzing the issues with enforcement of civil judgments, this Note provides a practical solution that balances comity, sovereign immunity and the need to develop reciprocal solutions to problems created by two societies closely tied to each other. In order to resolve the growing issues affecting state and tribal courts, it is necessary to require reciprocity for enforcement of civil judgments.

Public Law 280 and principles of comity create …

Evaluating Oral Histories: The Evidentiary Standard In Cases Involving The Repatriation Of Pre-Historic Human Remains, Sylvia St. Clair Aug 2013

Evaluating Oral Histories: The Evidentiary Standard In Cases Involving The Repatriation Of Pre-Historic Human Remains, Sylvia St. Clair

Sylvia B. St. Clair

Ms. St. Clair explores the use of oral histories to prove cultural affiliation and examines how the laws of evidence must be adapted in order to accommodate this type of evidence. In cases involving the repatriation of Native American human remains, proving cultural affiliation becomes especially problematic when traditional evidence is scarce and tribal claimants rely on oral histories to prove affiliation. This type of evidence is subject to heavy skepticism, consistently challenged by science and technological advances, and examination of the court’s treatment of cases over the last decade has left confusion on the applicable standard. In face of …
