Background PHD serves as the Department’s administrative trial court for Indian probate cases. Through formal hearings conducted by Administrative Law Judges and Indian Probate Judges, and summary proceedings conducted by an Attorney Decision Maker, PHD determines the rightful heirs and beneficiaries of decedents who owned property held in trust or restricted title by the United States. PHD determines the validity of wills, decides what claims against the estate will be allowed, and orders distribution of the trust or restricted property to those entitled to receive it. PHD Headquarters office is located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and field offices are located in Rapid City, South Dakota, Billings, Montana, Bloomington, Minnesota, Sacramento, California, and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. In June 2015, the Administrative Law Judge based in the Oklahoma City office retired and all but one employee subsequently left OHA for other opportunities. The remaining employee, now an Indian Probate Judge, continued to serve the Oklahoma City office area, conducting hearings in Oklahoma City and at locations throughout the region depending on where potential heirs reside. In light of the Administrative Law Judge’s retirement and the other staff departures, OHA plans to close the Oklahoma City office. The closure of the office will realize cost savings for the Federal Government and further promote the streamlining of operations. The IPJ will continue to serve the Oklahoma City office area from a home office, and she and other Ph.D. Judges will continue to conduct hearings in Oklahoma City and travel, as appropriate, to other areas served by the Oklahoma City office. OHA will continue to offer telephonic access to hearings so that people who do not live in the local area may participate in the hearings process without incurring travel expenses, if they so choose. OHA’s goal is to make participation in probate hearings as convenient as VerDate Sep<11>2014 14:54 May 30, 2017 Jkt 241001 possible and available to the greatest number of interested parties. The primary focus will be to hold in-person hearings locally, when practicable. Efforts to maintain the level of service have been ongoing since the departure of most of Oklahoma City’s employees and will continue even with the closure of the physical office space. OHA is not aware of any complaints that case disposition productivity diminished during this transition, but, through this listening session, Tribes, individual Indians, and interested parties are provided an opportunity to submit insights and recommendations of how OHA can best maintain its level of service in the areas served by the Oklahoma City Ph.D. office.

I. Background

    PHD serves as the Department's administrative trial court for 
Indian probate cases. Through formal hearings conducted by 
Administrative Law Judges and Indian Probate Judges, and summary 
proceedings conducted by an Attorney Decision Maker, PHD determines the 
rightful heirs and beneficiaries of decedents who owned property held 
in trust or restricted title by the United States. PHD determines the 
validity of wills, decides what claims against the estate will be 
allowed, and orders distribution of the trust or restricted property to 
those entitled to receive it.
    PHD Headquarters office is located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and 
field offices are located in Rapid City, South Dakota, Billings, 
Montana, Bloomington, Minnesota, Sacramento, California, and Oklahoma 
City, Oklahoma. In June 2015, the Administrative Law Judge based in the 
Oklahoma City office retired and all but one employee subsequently left 
OHA for other opportunities. The remaining employee, now an Indian 
Probate Judge, continued to serve the Oklahoma City office area, 
conducting hearings in Oklahoma City and at locations throughout the 
region depending on where potential heirs reside.
    In light of the Administrative Law Judge's retirement and the other 
staff departures, OHA plans to close the Oklahoma City office. The 
closure of the office will realize cost savings for the Federal 
Government and further promote the streamlining of operations. The IPJ

hold in-person hearings locally, when practicable.
    Efforts to maintain the level of service have been ongoing since 
the departure of most of Oklahoma City's employees and will continue 
even with the closure of the physical office space. OHA is not aware of 
any complaints that case disposition productivity diminished during 
this transition, but, through this listening session, Tribes, 
individual Indians, and interested parties are provided an opportunity 
to submit insights and recommendations of how OHA can best maintain its 
level of service in the areas served by the Oklahoma City Ph.D. office.
