[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 4288746, member: 3099"] It's true that Oklahoma doesn't have reservations like New Mexico, Montana, etc. Tribal lands in Oklahoma are held in trust by the BIA for the benefit of the tribes. How much federal oversight depends on the tribe. Some tribes pretty much manage all of their affairs, while others don't have the courts, LE agencies or administration to do so, so the feds do it for them. The tribe should have a map showing where their trust lands are on their website, but like everything else the detail may be better with some tribes than others. My ex's tribe had all theirs on their website and you could find out exactly what land was the tribes really easy. Others...Not so much. ETA: This post applies to civil things. Criminal is a whole 'nuther matter thanks to McGirt. [/QUOTE]
