"The collection contains examples of Judge Jameson's court cases from the 7th, 9th, and D.C. Circuit Courts and also the Temporary Emergency Court of Appeals. It also contains civil and criminal cases from The United States District Court for the District of Montana, including those from the Billings Division, Butte Division, Great Falls Division, Havre-Glasgow Division, Helena Division and the Missoula Division. Speeches and writings by Judge Jameson, articles, personal documents, awards, photographs, and audio tapes are also included in this collection." Margery Hunter Brown
"The collection contains course materials and outlines for American Indian Law, the Indian Law Clinic, Natural Resource Law, and Public Land Law. It also contains publications, speeches and articles collected from various Indian and Public Land conferences. Notes and materials from Brown's interviews and visits to Montana's seven reservations can also be found in this collection and should be of particular interest to those seeking information on the makeup of tribal governments. No other archive collection in Montana contains the amount of research and background in the issues of Indian and Public Land Law. |
