MONDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 2002 A federal appeals court has cleared the way for New Mexico Attorney General Patricia Madrid to continue suing two tribes who refuse to share casino revenues with the state. The Mescalero Apache Nation and Pojoaque Pueblo have been challenging whether they could be sued at all. The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals last Thursday said yes. Other tribes in the state negotiated new gaming compacts with Madrid with the condition that they make back payments under a 16 percent revenue sharing rate. The Mescalero and Pojoaque tribes believe the rate is illegal. Get the Story:
