The Federal
				Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 (FICWA or Federal Act) and Oklahoma Indian
				Child Welfare Act of 1982 (OICWA or State Act) [10 O.S. §
									40 through
				40.9 ] provide

				stability and security of Indian tribes and families. FICWA establishes minimum
				federal standards for the removal of Indian children from their families and
				ensures the placement of Indian children in foster or adoptive homes that
				reflect the unique values of Indian culture.

										40.1,
				the purpose of the Oklahoma Indian Child Welfare Act is the clarification of
				state policies and procedures regarding the implementation by the State of
				Oklahoma of the federal Indian Child Welfare Act, P.L. 95-608. It is the policy
				of the State of Oklahoma to:
(A) recognize
				that Indian tribes and nations have a valid governmental interest in Indian
				children regardless of whether the Indian children are in the physical or legal
				custody of an Indian parent or Indian custodian at the time state proceedings
				are initiated; and
(B) cooperate
				fully with Indian tribes in Oklahoma to ensure the intent and provisions of the
				federal Indian Child Welfare Act are enforced.

				presumptively in the Indian child's best interest to transfer the case to the
				Indian tribe's jurisdiction. When a proper request for transfer is made,
				jurisdiction is transferred by the state court to the tribal court unless:
(1) either parent objects to such
				transfer;
(2) the court finds good
				cause to deny transfer of the case; or
