Fremont County in Wyoming doesn't want to pay legal fees to members of the Eastern Shoshone Tribe and the Northern Arapaho Tribe who won a voting rights lawsuit.

The tribal members recently asked for $85,000 after winning a decision from the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. That's in addition to a pending request for more than $880,000 after winning at the district court level.

The county says the request is too high.
