Section 536 Intoxication. A. It shall be unlawful to be under the influence of an intoxicating beverage, drugs, or
other controlled substance, or a substance having the property of releasing vapors, to
any degree, in a public place or in a private place where one disturbs the peace of any
person, under circumstances not amounting to disorderly conduct. B. Intoxication shall be punishable by a fine not to exceed Two Hundred Fifty Dollars
($250.00), or by a term of imprisonment in the Tribal jail not to exceed three (3)
months, or both. However, a judge or the arresting law enforcement officer may order
the release from custody and the dropping of a charge under this section if the judge
or officer believes further imprisonment is unnecessary for the protection of the
individual or another and the individual is in a sober condition at the time of release.
The Judge may also commit the person convicted to a facility for treatment if it
appears that the person is dependent upon the intoxicating beverage, drugs, controlled
substance, or vapor producing substance, for a period not to exceed six (6) months.
