Native America Calling: Osage disestablishment

Osage disestablishment
Just as courts are working through jurisdictional boundaries for the other tribes in Oklahoma, a district court judge determined the Osage Nation reservation does not exist.
The judge asserts Congress disestablished the Osage reservation. Lawyers for the tribe and
the criminal defendant in question promise to take the issue to a federal appeals court.
It’s part of the ongoing legal push-and-pull in Oklahoma over criminal jurisdiction that has far-reaching implications.
