An attorney for the Marble Hill Oneidas of New York disputed a 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals ruling on the tribe's status as a separate tribe.

The court, in an unpublished opinion, said the group was part of the federally-recognized Oneida Nation. The decision was made because the group is seeking to join the Oneida land claim.

Attorney Philip Gitlen said the group is considering its next step.
