The Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians has asked a state judge to halt work at a site where tribal ancestors were recently discovered.

Work at the commercial site began in March, and 12 sets of human remains were accidentally unearthed. A disagreement has arisen over one burial, which the developer wants to move.

A representative for the state Native American Heritage Commission said the commission tried to resolve the dispute.
