TUESDAY, MARCH 12, 2002 A federal judge on Monday refused requests to reconsider a $247.9 million judgment award to the Cayuga Nation of New York. U.S. District Judge Neal McCurn rejected a tribal request to have more interest added to the fund. He also said he would not remove interest from the award as sought by the state. A jury determined 64,000 acres of land was worth $36.7 million. McCurn added interest for the years the Cayuga were denied the land. Some local officials in New York and private landowner are urging the state to appeal the case. Get the Story;
