The Shingle Springs Rancheria Tribal Court was established in November of 2010. The Court aims to further the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians’ tribal sovereignty and tribal government while providing the community a culturally sensitive and equitable process for settling legal matters. Currently, the Tribal Court has a trial court for civil matters that can include; enrollment, elections, assignments or land laws, environmental laws, housing laws, building codes, children’s codes, peace and security codes and other civil laws passed by the Tribal Council. The Tribal Court does not hear criminal cases at this time.
