1. ““Where administration proceedings of the estate of a deceased full-blood Osage Indian is pending in the county court having jurisdiction of settlement thereof, and a period of three years or more years has not elapsed since the death of the intestate without there having been a decree entered in the county court of competent jurisdiction judicially determining the heirs of the deceased, and a district court attempts to determine the heirs of the deceased and to partition real estate belonging to the estate among those heirs, notwithstanding the fact that the attention of the district court has been called to the proceeding in the county court, the district court is without authority to determine the heirs and partition the real estate belonging to the estate, and this court, in a proper proceeding, will prohibit the district court from proceeding further in the matter.””
