Supreme Court won't take on Calif. compact dispute
Tuesday, February 24, 2004 More from this date
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rejected a tribal challenge to gaming compacts in California.
A group of tribes accused former Gov. Gray Davis (D), who was recalled last October, of
negotiating in bad faith. But the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, in a unanimous decision in
June
2003, rejected the argument. Among Davis' tactics was to give tribes only two hours to agree to a compact.
The tribes later appealed. The case is Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians v. California, No. 03-804.
