Whether Oklahoma Court’s can continue to unlawfully exercise under state law, | criminal jurisdiction over the lands formerly known as the Unassigned Lands, where the Oklahoma Constitution Article 1§3 states in part that they forever disclaim all right and title...and that until the title to any such public land shall have been extinguished by the ; United States, the same shall be and remain subject to the jurisdiction, disposal and control of the United States. : 2. Whether the United States still owns the patent and title to the Unassigned Lands ceded to the United States by the Muscogee (Creek) Nation and Seminole Indians following the Civil War, leaving the area exclusively under federal jurisdiction. 3. Did the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals impose an improper and unduly burdensome bar to deny petitioner, in an effort to circumvent and. contravene the Supreme Court’s precedent, that Subject-Matter Jurisdiction can “never” be forfeited or waived. i
