Description
The lucky winners at blackjack, baccarat, twenty-one, and the slot machines are not the only ones who see the prospect of great wealth flowing from casinos. Even more so (and even more reliably), wealth comes to those who own and operate gambling establishments. Casino gambling has become a major enterprise for many Native American groups, as Congress has paved the way for their entry into that business. This case pits one group of Indian tribes who hope to open a new gambling facility against another tribe that currently runs another gambling facility nearby. The narrow question before us is whether the district court erred when it refused to permit the St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin ("the St. Croix") to intervene, either of right or by permission, in litigation between the Sokaogon Chippewa Community Mole Lake Band of Lake Superior Chippewa ("the Sokaogon"), the Lac Courte Oreilles Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians ("the LCO"), and the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians ("the Red Cliff"), and the U.S. Department of the Interior. We conclude that it did not and we therefore affirm the district courts decision.
