4-2-6. JURISDICTION OVER PERSONS.

The Rosebud Sioux Tribal Court will exercise civil and criminal jurisdiction over all persons within its territorial jurisdiction to the extent allowed by federal statutory law and Federal Court decisions.  It is recognized that decisions such as Oliphant (55 Lawyers Ed 2nd 209) limit the jurisdiction of this Court over certain non-Indians.  However, the Rosebud Sioux Tribal Court will continue to exercise all of the civil and criminal jurisdiction over all persons allowed to it by federal statute and federal judicial Court decisions.
