Zuni tribal court

The Zuni Tribal Court is the judicial authority for the Zuni Pueblo, a Native American community in New Mexico. It handles legal matters involving tribal members, including disputes, violations of tribal laws, and issues related to tribal sovereignty. The court operates under the Zuni Tribal Constitution and federal laws, often blending traditional customs with modern legal practices. Its goal is to promote justice, uphold tribal sovereignty, and resolve conflicts fairly within the community. The court may hear criminal, civil, or family cases, and its decisions can impact individuals’ rights and the community’s well-being.
