US: Federal Judge Sets Hearing To Resolve ICWA Lawsuit; One Issue Still Pending (Audio)

US: Federal Judge Sets Hearing To Resolve ICWA Lawsuit; One Issue Still Pending (Audio)
SDPB Radio – May 26, 2016
A federal judge has set a hearing date to reach a resolution in a lawsuit alleging violations of the Indian Child Welfare Act, or ICWA. Judge Jeffrey Viken ruled more than a year ago that practices in Pennington County violate statutes and the U.S. Constitution. But he told parties at a status hearing on May 26 that recent transcripts show those practices have not changed. SDPB’s Victoria Wicks has followed this case since it was filed more than three years ago.
