A pre-trial hearing was held in federal court in Montana on Thursday to address a lawsuit against the Crow Tribe.

A total of 270 tribal members are seeking the removal of their leaders, alleging numerous violations of constitutional and other rights. The lawsuit was filed in response to changes the current administration has made to the tribe's governing structure, including the ouster of Titon Old Bull Sr. as secretary and the removal of three tribal judges.
