The Navajo Nation court system is the largest and most established tribal legal system in the world. Since the landmark 1959 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Williams v. Lee that affirmed tribal court authority over reservation-based claims, the Navajo Nation has been at the vanguard of a far-reaching, transformative jurisprudential movement among Indian tribes in North America and indigenous peoples around the world to retrieve and use traditional values to address contemporary legal issues. A justice on the Navajo Nation Supreme Court for sixteen years, Justice Raymond D. Austin has been deeply involved in the movement to develop tribal courts and tribal law as effective means of modern self-government. He has written foundational opinions that have established Navajo common law and, throughout his legal career, has recognized the benefit of tribal customs and traditions as tools of restorative justice. In Navajo Courts and Navajo Common Law, Justice Austin considers the history and implications of how the Navajo Nation courts apply foundational Navajo doctrines to modern legal issues. He explains key Navajo foundational concepts like Hózhó (harmony), K'é (peacefulness and solidarity), and K'éí (kinship) both within the Navajo cultural context and, using the case method of legal analysis, as they are adapted and applied by Navajo judges in virtually every important area of legal life in the tribe. In addition to detailed case studies, Justice Austin provides a broad view of tribal law, documenting the development of tribal courts as important institutions of indigenous self-governance and outlining how other indigenous peoples, both in North America and elsewhere around the world, can draw on traditional precepts to achieve self-determination and self-government, solve community problems, and control their own futures.

This study examines the issue of whether Minnesota Tribal Court orders should be given full faith and credit by Minnesota State Courts. It examines the historical relationship between Indian Tribes in the United States, and in particular the relationship of Indian Tribes in Minnesota, with Federal and State Government by examining the development of case law as it has affected and influenced these relationships. The study also examines the development of tribal courts in Minnesota with a historical perspective on how the tribal courts have developed from their inception to the role that they currently occupy in the judicial system. It also looks at the reasons that tribal courts have developed as they have including the role of funding in that development and the involvement of the federal government in providing resources to the tribal courts. The future of tribal courts and the significance of full faith and credit for tribal court orders is explored. The issue of how full faith and credit or the failure to grant full faith and credit will impact the efficient administration of justice is addressed along with suggestions for improving relationships and maintaining more seamless systems of judicial administration.
