The chief judge for the Chippewa Cree Tribe of Montana has been charged for drunken driving and refusing to take a breath test.
Tribal Court Chief Judge Duane Gopher pleaded not guilty to both charges.
They stem from a traffic stop on the Rocky Boys Reservation last week.
Gopher is appearing in tribal court. He remains on the job.
