shed light on the captivating narrative of the “Osage Reign of Terror\,” with a special emphasis on the legal intricacies depicted in the acclaimed book and major motion picture “Killers of the Flower Moon.” \nOur discussion will commence with an in-depth examination of the forced displacement of the Osage tribe from their ancestral lands to the Indian Territory. As we transition to Oklahoma’s statehood\, our focus will center on the legal complexities arising from the discovery of oil and gas resources within the Osage Nation\, including the intricate regulatory landscape governing allotment and reserved oil and gas headrights. \nPrepare to delve into the nuanced jurisdictional challenges that have emerged between state and federal authorities. We will meticulously analyze the legal dimensions surrounding the tragic murders of esteemed Osage tribal members\, such as Henry Roan and Anna Brown\, perpetrated by William K. Hale and John Ramsey in their exploitation of tribal assets under the headright system. \nOur discussion will also feature a comprehensive review of the subsequent federal investigation led by the Bureau of Investigation\, the precursor to the FBI\, as well as the intricate legal proceedings encompassing the trials and appeals of William K. Hale and John Ramsey within the Western District of Oklahoma federal court. \nFurthermore\, we will address pressing legal considerations regarding the re-establishment of the Osage tribal government\, the intricacies of Osage headrights ownership\, and ongoing jurisdictional disputes involving state\, federal\, and tribal entities within the historic Osage Reservation. Gain invaluable legal insights into the complexities surrounding litigation pertaining to the boundaries of the Osage Reservation post-McGirt.

The seizure and return of the artworks garnered international\nheadlines upon their restitution to the heirs of Fritz Grunbaum\, a Viennese cabaret\nartist who was murdered in the Dachau Concentration Camp. The Schieles are now\nat Christie’s while Grunbaum’s heirs continue to fight the London art dealers’\nappeals. \nThe presentation traces Abraham Lincoln’s idea of taking the profit out of war\nthrough the Lieber Code Executive Order 100 of April 1863\, to the 1899 and 1907\nHague Conventions\, to the Nuremberg Trials\, demonstrating that returning stolen\nproperty to Holocaust victims is consistent with American ideals and foreign\npolicy. \nDowd discusses how 1. Confiscatory US tax laws\, 2. A fair market value deduction\nfor artworks donated to museums\, and 3. An unwillingness of museums to look gift\nhorses in the mouth led to the current situation: US museums with large\ninventories of unprovenanced works that left Europe after 1933\, but were created\nprior to 1946. History’s greatest robbery has long been concealed by history’s\ngreatest murder\, Congress passing the HEAR Act of 2016 extended the statute of\nlimitations for Nazi looted art claims and reaffirmed America’s commitment to\nrighting an historic wrong. \nKey note: Raymond J.

While adjudicators may recognize their own bias\, this may not necessarily lead to stopping bias. Judges know that they need to assess credibility\, and appellate judges are not supposed to replace their determination. The demeanor of the defendant\, witnesses\, prosecutor\, and defense attorney can make a difference in the outcome of cases. \nA professor\, a former administrative law judge\, and a District Court judge will discuss how adjudicators can recognize and attempt to eliminate implicit bias in decision-making. \nProfessor Susan Bandes\, who teaches at DePaul Law School and the University of Miami Law School\, is a founder of the field of Law and Emotion. She will address the ways in which cultural scripts and worldviews influence credibility determinations\, including remorse evaluations. She will further discuss the dangers of selective empathy based on race\, ethnicity\, social class\, and other factors. She will suggest some approaches for addressing these issues. \nFormer Board of Immigration Appeals judge Lory Rosenberg will speak about how adjudicators address issues of credibility and discretion in adjudications\, bearing in mind that their own life experiences color their decisions. \nDistrict Court Judge Judith Levy uses an implicit bias instruction during jury selection. She will discuss her experience with that instruction and raise concerns about the wide number of credibility determinations trial judges need to make with very little information or exposure to the individual. These include bond determinations\, sentencing decisions\, early termination of supervised release or probation\, and more. She will also discuss her experience of listening to criminal defendants’ allocution during sentencing\, and the importance of addressing implicit or explicit bias in this process. \nPresented by the Professional Development Committee\, the Judiciary Division\, and the Civil Rights Law Section \nand Judiciary Division \n  \n[Register Online]\nFor questions regarding this program\, please contact MyLaw CLE by email: registration@mylawcle.com or phone: 877-406-8636. \n\nAbout the Presenters\n \nProf. Susan Bandes\, DePaul Law School and the University of Miami Law School \nSusan A.

Surprisingly\, we are still seeing arguments that defrauding managed care is immaterial to the government because payments are capitated.

This was a sell out event! \nIn the past year\, Tribes have seen the direct impact of issues coming before the courts. Educational sessions at our Annual Indian Law Conference were developed to help practitioners understand recent litigation developments and turn the conversation forward for Indian Country. It is essential that Indigenous law practitioners are at the ready to protect critical rights and advance tribal sovereignty. The conference also addressed how practitioners can help Tribes and Indigenous individuals protect their rights\, lands\, communities\, and culture while maintaining collaborative efforts with state and U.S. Federal governments. Panelists included practitioners who have been involved in recent pivotal cases before the Supreme Court\, those who have forged the path for Indigenous presence in the Federal judicial\, legislative\, and executive branches\, and those working directly to represent Tribes on critical issues faced by Tribal governments on a daily basis. \nCo-Hosted by the Indian Law Section \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsors\nEvent Partner\n \nConference Contributor \n \nReception Sponsor (Limited)\nWilmerHale \nBreakfast/Break Sponsor\nPatterson Earnhart Real Bird & Wilson LLP\nRothstein Donatelli LLP \nProgram Patron\nAkin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld\nUniversity of Oklahoma College of Law \nTribal Sponsor \nUnited South and Eastern Tribes \n\nAgenda\nSession times are posted as Mountain Standard Time and subject to change. \nWednesday\, April 3\n\n3:00 – 5:00 PM | Exhibitor Check-in and Set-up\n5:00 – 6:00 PM | Registration (Badge pick-up)\n \nThursday\, April 4 \n7:30 – 8:30 AM | Registration + Breakfast \n8:30 AM | Welcome Remarks \n8:45 – 10:15 AM | [CLE] Supreme Court Update: Major Trends in Indian Law\nThis panel will review recent Supreme Court decisions in Indian law including Haaland v.

But recent case law has threatened to chip away at this sovereign right. This summer\, the U.S. Supreme Court held in Lac du Flambeau that Congress via the U.S. Bankruptcy Code abrogated Tribal Nations’ sovereign immunity despite not specifically referring to Tribal Nations in that statute. Further\, the federal government continues to argue that it adequately represents Tribal Nations’ interests in the face of Rule 19 assertions\, including in the Maverick and Seminole gaming compact cases.
