If you’re facing a tribal criminal matter, seeking a specialized tribal attorney is crucial. I’m Ted Hasse, an attorney with extensive experience in federal and tribal courts in Oklahoma. Many people underestimate the importance of hiring an attorney who not only practices in tribal court but knows the specific court where you have charges. Experienced attorneys deliver better outcomes due to their familiarity with local judges and prosecutors. Plus, less experienced attorneys may lead to higher costs due to inefficiencies.

**How Appeals Work in the Muscogee Creek Nation**
Navigating the appeal process within the Muscogee Creek Nation can be complex. Defendants dissatisfied with district court outcomes, or those facing appeals by the prosecution, must file a notice of appeal within 10 days of the final judgment. This goes straight to the Muscogee Creek Nation Supreme Court, which acts as the sole appellate court without an intermediate level. Non-Native American defendants may also have the option to pursue federal writs of habeas corpus, particularly in criminal cases like domestic violence. Understanding these unique routes is crucial, so consulting with an attorney is highly recommended. For assistance, contact Ted Hassey at 918-932-2800.
