Statutes | Little River Band of Ottawa Indians Ords. and Regs., Elder Prot Code. art XI ยง 11.01 | 2020

Reporter Confidentiality. The name of a reporter who reports abuse or neglect as required by this code is confidential and shall not be released to any person unless the reporter consents to the release or release is ordered by the Tribal Court. The Tribal Court may release the reporters name only after notice to the reporter is given, a closed evidentiary hearing is held, and the need to protect the Elder is found to be greater than the reporters right to confidentiality. The reporters name shall be released only to the extent determined necessary to protect the Elder.
