Title: Class III Gaming Procedures
Abstract: This rule would clarify language in the existing rule dealing with Indian gaming compact negotiations between States and tribes when tribes have exhausted Federal judicial remedies. The rule applies where a tribe asserts that the State is not negotiating in good faith, files suit against the State in Federal court, but cannot proceed in Federal court because the State refuses to waive its sovereign immunity from suit. In cases where a State chooses not to assert a sovereign immunity defense, this proposed rule would not apply.
