Can jurisdiction be transferred between tribes?
Yes. A tribe may transfer a case to another tribe according to its own law and judicial procedures. Where two tribes assert an interest in a child custody proceeding in state court involving a child who is enrolled or eligible for enrollment in both tribes, one tribe may defer jurisdiction to the other tribe. See, e.g., In re T.I., 2005 SD 125, 707 N.W.2d 826.
