The National Center for State Courts will present the webinar "Working Together Why and How State Courts Should Collaborate With Tribes" on Monday, June 12, at 3 p.m. via Zoom.
On both the individual case and policy levels, state courts must deal with child welfare, criminal justice, fish and game, and many other issues involving sovereign, indigenous populations.
In this webinar, Supreme Court justices from Michigan and Washington will discuss how state courts can develop strong working relationships with tribes, including establishing permanent collaborative forums for state, tribal and federal courts.
Speaking at the webinar will be Michigan Supreme Court Justice Megan Cavanagh and Washington Supreme Court Justice Raquel Montoya-Lewis, along with South Dakota Supreme Court Chief Justice Steven Jensen and Nebraska State Court Administrator Corey Steel as moderators.
This webinar is sponsored by the Tribal Relations Committee of the Conference of Chief Justices (CCJ) and the Conference of State Court Administrators (COSCA).
