June 24, 2022 from 9:45 am to 10:40 am

Speaker: Victoria Holland

McGirt, and its related decisions, re-recognized the Tribal reservation boundaries for half of the State of Oklahoma. While there are still cases pending fleshing out the various aspects of what this means, we know the reservation boundaries are here, and they are here to stay. This course will go over the basics of Indian law, including civil jurisdiction, will focus on the criminal aspect on crimes committed in Indian Country.
