California is dropping its taxation lawsuit against the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, a spokesperson for the state's taxation board said.

The state has been trying to collect a 7.75 percent sales tax on the reservation. But now that the tax board is voting to change its policy on the tax, the lawsuit will end, said spokesperson Sheri Larson.
