Federal, State and Tribal Jurisdiction on Indian Reservations in Arizona
Author: Jerry Angle
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Indian courts
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
"In January of 1959 the United States Supreme Court, in the case of Williams v. Lee, reaffirmed the right of jurisdiction of tribal courts - as opposed to state courts - when civil or criminal actions are brought against reservation Indian defendants. The considerable interest and attention which this decision created has brought to light once more the general lack of understanding of the legal and political position of reservation Indians. The following report by Jerry Angle, a senior student in the University of Arizona College of Law, has been prepared in an attempt to pull together in a single short study the various legal and technical aspects of the problem." From foreword.

Jurisdiction on Indian Reservations
Author: Committee on Indian Affairs

ISBN: 9780894991103
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Major questions have always existed concerning the role and status of Indian tribes and Indian peoples within the fabric of life in the United States. There is a relatively consistent body of law whose origins flow from precolonial America to the present day. This body of law is neither well-known nor well-understood by the American Public. Federal Indian law - or, more accurately, United States constitutional law concerning Indian tribes and individuals - is unique and separate from the rest of American jurisprudence. Analogies to general constitutional law, civil right law, public land law, and the like are misleading and often erroneous. Indian law is distinct. It encompassed Western European international law, specific provisions of the United States Constitution, precolonial treaties, treaties of the United States, an entire volume of the United States Code, and numerous decisions of the United States Supreme Court and lower federal courts.The nature of the federal, state, and tribal relationship was defined in a highly politicized setting, when the Supreme Court of the United States, led by Chief Justice John Marshall, struck down an entire series of state statutes violative of tribal-state and tribal-federal relations. These cases established the principles that Indian tribes possessed sovereignty over their members and territory and that the federal government protects tribal sovereignty, land, and resources from states and non-Indian interests.The Supreme Court of the United States has specifically addressed the issue of whether specialized treatment of Indians by the federal government is unconstitutional racial discrimination. The clear answer of the Court was that it is not. For the purpose of dealing with the federal government, Indian tribes are not racial groupings but rather political groupings - governments.
