The WI, MN, MI State and Tribal Judges Forum provided an opportunity for Judges to share best practices and network. The Judges from Michigan spent lunch discussing the morning session presented by Minnesota Judges and how Michigan could integrate similar programming. Having a venue to share, network, and discuss enhancements is crucial to the justice system.

The team will meet with local stakeholders and present a number of performance measures to the Salt Lake County Criminal Justice Advisory Council for feedback.  These measures will eventually be used to develop a data dashboard.

This conference is focused on providing Alaska Tribal Justice Systems with information children’s cases, domestic violence, and misdemeanor/juvenile cases. There is an emphasis on restorative justice and sentencing circles. One other component of the training is improving tribal-state relations. This conference is intended to provide information to tribes just beginning tribal court development, for tribes that want to enhance or make modifications to their courts, as well as for tribes pursuing on-going tribal court training.

This educational course was developed to provide the most targeted training needed in Alaska Tribal courts, from court administration issues to case management. There are separate tracks for the judges and court administrators/court clerks to be able to target specific needs for each job.
