with law and ethics, but, also to maintain the office's

integrity and credibility.

The office provides legal representation and assistance

under the terms of its attorneys' contracts to such classes of

person as directed through priorities set by the Business

Council. Council directs policy defining eligibility for

services and the types of service to be provided to the

membership. Current priorities are providing professional

representation for tribal members accused of criminal

offenses under the Colville Tribal Law and Order Code and

in Minor-in-Need-of- Care proceedings.

The program manager shall guide all services the Public

Defender's Office provides, ensuring all staff comply with

applicable rules of professional conduct including the

Spokesman's Oath and the WSBA RPC's. The program

manager, staff attorneys, and, with the guidance of the

program manager, spokespersons, retain the right to exercise

independent professional judgement and shall provide all

services in consultation with clients and without interference

from Council and tribal administration. By the terms of the

program manager's contract, the program manager reports to

Council. Consistent with maintaining the independence of

the office, the attorney hiring process is handled by the

office from initial recruitment up to administrative contract

review. Upon completion of administrative review, final

approval of all contract rests with Council. Tribal

administration provides limited oversight specifically

regarding the budget and administrative matters regarding

non-attorney personnel only as needed.

Long-standing policies prohibit the office from providing

assistance with the following: lawsuits against the Tribes or

its employees or assigns, excepting specifically habeas

petitions on behalf of clients in detention; family law

matters; restraining and no contract orders in civil actions;

and all other non-criminal and non-MINOC matters.
