Santa Clara Pueblo Tribal Court Handbook (2019), Tribal Law Journal Staff

Tribal Law Journal

This handbook helps take some of the mystery out of practicing in tribal courts. Without the necessary information to learn new rules and protocols many attorneys are understandably reluctant to practice in a new jurisdiction. As a result, tribal courts are underused or misused. This handbook is intended to help attorneys and advocates become more aware of the various individual tribal court systems and to learn their rules and protocol.

Incorporation Without Assimilation: Legislating Tribal Civil Jurisdiction Over Non-Members, Alexander Tallchief Skibine Jan 2019

Incorporation Without Assimilation: Legislating Tribal Civil Jurisdiction Over Non-Members, Alexander Tallchief Skibine

Utah Law Faculty Scholarship

For the last 40 years the Supreme Court has been engaged in a measured attack on the sovereignty of Indian tribes when it comes to tribal court jurisdiction over people who are not members of the tribe asserting that jurisdiction. The Congress has already enacted legislation partially restoring some tribal courts’ criminal jurisdiction over non-members. This Essay proposes to legislatively reconfirm the civil jurisdiction of tribal courts over such non-members. After examining the Supreme Court’s jurisprudence in this area and summarizing the Court’s main concerns with such tribal jurisdiction, this Essay explores various legislative options before settling on a preferred …

Statutory Recognition Of Indigenous Custom Adoption: Its Role In Strengthening Self-Governance Over Child Welfare, Celeste Cuthbertson Jan 2019

Statutory Recognition Of Indigenous Custom Adoption: Its Role In Strengthening Self-Governance Over Child Welfare, Celeste Cuthbertson

Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies

This article critically examines the statutory recognition of Indigenous custom adoption in Canada. Settler state recognition of custom adoption in each province and territory is discussed and the possibility of conflation between custom adoption and settler state adoption is highlighted. The author argues that statutory regimes have a role in strengthening Indigenous self-governance over child welfare so long as the conflation of diverse practices is rejected, and recognition is accompanied by control and support.

An Act Respecting First Nations, Inuit And Métis Children, Youth And Families: Does Bill C-92 Make The Grade?, Naiomi Metallic, Hadley Friedland, Aimée Craft, Jeffery Hewitt, Sarah Morales Jan 2019

An Act Respecting First Nations, Inuit And Métis Children, Youth And Families: Does Bill C-92 Make The Grade?, Naiomi Metallic, Hadley Friedland, Aimée Craft, Jeffery Hewitt, Sarah Morales

Reports & Public Policy Documents

On Thursday, February 28, 2019, the federal government introduced Bill C-92, An Act respecting First Nations, Métis and Inuit children, youth and families for first reading. After many years of well documented discrimination against Indigenous children, there is much hope in this legislative process to reverse this trend, empower Indigenous peoples to reclaim jurisdiction in this area, and ensure the rights of children are affirmed. To realize those hopes, we have drafted this analysis with the aim to improve the current legislation as it moves through committee and the Senate.


[Introduction To] Documents Of Native American Political Development: 1933 To Present, David E. Wilkins (Editor) Jan 2019

[Introduction To] Documents Of Native American Political Development: 1933 To Present, David E. Wilkins (Editor)

Bookshelf

Before Europeans arrived in what is now known as the United States, over 600 diverse Native nations lived on the same land. This encroachment and subsequent settlement by Americans forcibly disrupted the lives of all indigenous peoples and brought about staggering depopulation, loss of land, and cultural, religious, and economic changes. These developments also wrought profound changes in indigenous politics and longstanding governing institutions. David E. Wilkins' two-volume work Documents of Native American Political Development traces how indigenous peoples have maintained and continued to exercise a significant measure of self-determination contrary to presumptions that such powers had been lost, surrendered, …

Waiving Federal Sovereign Immunity In Original Actions Between States, Sandra B. Zellmer Jan 2019

Waiving Federal Sovereign Immunity In Original Actions Between States, Sandra B. Zellmer

Faculty Law Review Articles

There are tremendous disparities between high stakes original actions between states before the US. Supreme Court, where there is no waiver of federal sovereign immunity, and other types of cases in the lower courts, where a plethora of immunity waivers allow states and other parties to seek relief from the federal government for Fifth Amendment takings, unlawful agency action, and tort claims. Federal actions or omissions are often at the heart of the dispute, and federal involvement may be crucial for purposes of providing an equitable remedy to the state parties, but there is no reliable mechanism for bringing the …


Reclaiming The Navajo Range: Resolving The Conflict Between Grazing Rights And Development, Ezra Rosser Jan 2019

Reclaiming The Navajo Range: Resolving The Conflict Between Grazing Rights And Development, Ezra Rosser

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

Grazing is fundamental to Navajo identity, yet management of the Navajo range remains highly problematic. This Essay connects the federal government's devastating livestock reduction effort of the 1930s with the inability of the Navajo Nation to place meaningful limits on grazing and the power of grazing permittees. It argues that the Navajo Nation should consider reasserting the tribe's traditional understanding that property rights depend on use as a way to create space for reservation development.
