| Issues: |
Appellant's Statement of the Issues: Whether the District Court erred in granting Tribe's Motion to Intervene, where children are biological children of an enrolled member but not eligible for membership in Tribe and Tribe has recognized children solely for the purpose of the applicability of ICWA. Appellee's Statement of the Issues: I.Cass County Social Services lacks standing to constitutionally challenge the validity of the Indian Child Welfare Act on an equal protection or substantive due process basis. II.The State Court lacks jurisdiction to review a tribal determination that children of an enrolled member are "eligible for membership". | ||||||
