Tribe: Comanche Nation, Oklahoma
Section 701. Dispositional Hearing.
After making an order of adjudication finding the
child to be a ward of the Court, the Comanche Nation Tribal Court shall conduct a dispositional
hearing, which may be held immediately following the adjudication or at a hearing scheduled
on a separate date for that purpose. The purpose of the dispositional hearing is for the Comanche
Nation Tribal Court to determine the proper disposition best serving the interests of the child
and the Comanche Nation, approve a treatment plan described in section 703 of this Code, and
address any other issues related to the protection of the health, welfare, and safety of the child.
The Comanche Nation Tribal Court may order any agency within its jurisdiction or request any
other agency to prepare and submit to the Court prior to disposition a proposed treatment plan,
social study, home study, family or medical history or other reports which may be helpful in
determining proper disposition and treatment. Such proposed treatment plan and reports shall be
filed with the Comanche Nation Tribal Court and a copy delivered to the parties or their attorney
at least five days prior to the dispositional hearing, including any dispositional hearing held on
the same date as the adjudication.
