In the Matter of Elizabeth Ann Ross STREETER, in Relation to Certain of Her Minor Grandchildren. JAT-98-18. Cherokee Nation Judicial Appeals Tribunal. June 22, 1999. [MAJORITY — DARRELL DOWTY, Justice.] ORDER DARRELL DOWTY, Justice. This matter was assigned to this Court for further action by the Hon. Chief Justice on February 9, 1999.
