Hallo
Nach welchen Gesetz werden eigentlich Fälle in Reservaten entschieden?
Nach Bundes-,Staats-, oder Stammesgesetz?Gibt es unterschiedliche Bewertungen
ob Indianer oder Nicht-Indianer in einen Fall verwickelt sind?
Gruß
Clinton

Hi Clinton,
habe folgendes gefunden.
Laws. As U.S. citizens, Indians are generally subject to federal, state, and local laws. On Indian reservations, however, only federal and tribal laws apply to members of the tribe unless the Congress provides otherwise. In federal law, the Assimilative Crimes Act makes any violation of state criminal law a federal offense on reservations. Most tribes now maintain tribal court systems and facilities to detain tribal members convicted of certain offenses within the boundaries of the reservation
