The Northern Cheyenne Tribal Court has issued juror summonses to residents in the communities of Lame Deer, Birney, and Ashland. This follows a 2023 decision that allows the Tribal Courts to summon potential jurors from areas in close proximity to the reservation, although it does not grant the Court authority over those individuals. The purpose of this practice is to help ensure defendants have access to fair and impartial juries.
