Tribe still considering appeal

NOVEMBER 29, 2000 The Crow Tribe of Montana is still deciding if they will appeal one of their recent cases to the Supreme Court but must do so within the month. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in July ruled that the tribe's utility tax could not be imposed on public utility on the reservation. The court said the land passed out on Indian control through Congressional involvement so the tribe doesn't have the authority to tax the utility. Meanwhile, another one of their taxation cases may be resolved by another Supreme Court case. The Court this week decided to take on a Navajo Nation taxation dispute and the result may affect the Crow Tribe's own resort tax, which a federal judge struck down in August. Get the Story:
