Kevin Ring, an associate of convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff, will go to trial for a second time this October.
Federal prosecutors say Ring showered gifts on Congressional aides and Bush
administration officials to influence them into taking actions to benefit his tribal clients.
Jennifer Farley, a former White House official who worked with tribes, was among the recipients, according to prosecutors.
Prosecutors also say Ring developed a "corrupt" lobbying scheme whose
targets included Sandia
Pueblo of New Mexico.
Ring went on trial last October but the judge declared a mistrial after the jury was unable to agree on all of the counts.
