Mission
The overall purpose of the Southern California Indian Law and Justice Center-Intertribal Court is to provide members of the Native American community and their participating tribes with a culteral sensitive judicial forum in which to present and resolve disputes.The ICSC is an Intertribal Court System, which works on a "circuit court" format whereby a Judge travels from one Reservation to the next presiding over assigned cases. Rulings are based on tribal laws, ordinances, customs and historical precedent. The ICSC provides court administration, court clerks, bailiffs, and case management. Tribal court hearings are held at their respective Tribe's Reservation.
