Notes


A personal account by a Western Canadian judge examining the operation of the legal and justice systems within a First Nations community. Drawing on his own judicial experience, Reilly discusses criminal sentencing, incarceration, and the broader legal and political structures affecting Indigenous peoples, including the Indian Act and band governance. The book combines memoir, social commentary, and case-based reflection to explore how established legal approaches have been applied in Indigenous contexts and the consequences of those applications.
