Abstract

In the Blackfeet Tribal Court of Appeals, the Court denied a petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, filed by the natural mother of two children. The children were removed from her custody and placed with their grandmother. The Court denied the Writ pursuant to Ch. 11, Se. 26 of the Blackfeet Law and Order Code. The Court found there wasn't sufficient grounds for removal of the children from theri grandmother and subsequently recommended the lower court immediately hold a hearing to determine temporary custody of the children to prevent further unnecessary detainment.
