The Indian Law Outlook: June 2023

For more than 30 years, the win-loss record for tribal interests at the United State Supreme Court was dismal. Since 2018, however, the win-loss record for tribal interests has dramatically improved. This course will take a close look at the Supreme Court's most recent Indian law decisions. The course will discuss what factors might explain this recent winning streak, and what it portends for future Indian Law cases at the Supreme Court. This program will benefit tribal attorneys, practitioners of federal Indian law, and other attorneys who wish to learn more about federal Indian law.
