§ 278-4. Venue.

Venue for proceedings under this chapter shall be determined by the residence or domicile of the child or the jurisdiction where the alleged act occurred. Venue exists concurrently in the State Courts and other tribal Courts for Menominee children who reside outside the Menominee Indian Reservation.

Where the residence of the child and the location of the alleged act are in different jurisdictions, initiating proceedings in one jurisdiction shall bar subsequent filing of proceedings in other jurisdictions for that alleged act unless a transfer of jurisdiction has been ordered.
