An agreement is reached between the city of Tulsa and the Muscogee Creek Nation in a lawsuit over criminal jurisdiction for municipal cases. The Muscogee Creek Nation filed the suit in 2023 and argued the city no longer had the power to prosecute Creek citizens for municipal crimes committed on reservation land. The city of Tulsa has agreed to pass cases involving Muscogee citizens on to tribal prosecutors.
