Conquering   a Legislative Court: Murphy and an Opportunity for Clarity in Indian Country


                                          Michael   R. Faz**




























*Michael R. Faz, J.D., 2020, University of Nebraska College of Law; B.A., 2017, Texas A&M University-
Commerce.  The author thanks Mallory Rechtenbach and Jordan Pitcher for their assistance and insight.
+ The author wrote this Note before the Supreme Court granted certiorari in McGirt v. Oklahoma. McGirt presents
substantially similar facts as Murphy; however, this Note will not address that case. Due to his participation in
Murphy  as a judge on the Tenth Circuit, Justice Gorsuch is recused. He is not recused, though, in McGirt.
Accordingly, Murphy's fate likely relies on the full Court's opinion inMcGirt.
