The defendants claim that the original act of 1889 intended for Indian courts to have exclusive jurisdiction over such cases. The defendants also argue that a later act in 1890 repealed any jurisdiction the Muskogee Court may have had in such matters. They assert that the District Court of the Chickasaw Nation should have jurisdiction over the case in question. The brief criticizes the plaintiffs' counsel for omitting certain provisions of the relevant acts in their argument.

They have received allocations but face delays in completing units due to bureaucratic hurdles. The tribe has a high demand for housing due to economic conditions, and statistics on housing needs are deemed inaccurate.

Concerns are raised about the allocation of housing units for the state of Oklahoma and the possible relocation of the Indian Housing program office.
