twitterBrief: Nebraska tribe loses appeal over casino
Tuesday, Oct. 6, 1998 | 1:24 a.m.
The court, without comment, turned away the Santee Sioux Tribe's argument it should be allowed to continue operating the casino even without an agreement with state officials.
In its appeal, the tribe had argued that a federal law requiring tribes to negotiate gambling agreements with states was no longer enforceable because of a 1996 Supreme Court ruling that said tribes cannot sue states in federal court to resolve gambling disputes.
The 1988 Indian Gaming Regulatory Act requires tribes to negotiate agreements with their states before starting casino-style gambling. The law allows Indian tribes to operate casinos only in states whose laws generally permit such gambling.
