Self-Determination

Memorandum

To: Superintendent, Talihina Agency

From: Acting Area Director, Muskogee Area Office

Subject: FY 1992 Contract Proposal

The Choctaw Tribe's proposal for a contract for the Tribal Courts program for FY 1992, has been approved for the amount of $66,000. When the agreement is written by Area Office Staff, we need to omit language which references "Court of Indian 0ffenses" and or "CFR Court". The term "Tribal Court" will be substituted. The position description for the Court Clerk refers to a duty of doing court reporting. This fact seems to conflict with the tribe proposing to contract with a Court Reporter; this needs clarification or a new position description which can be submitted with the return of the approved contract.

The tribe's proposal for the Law Enforcement program has been approved as submitted.
