The Day - Mashantucket tribe's top judge ousted, says he wasn't told why | News from southeastern Connecticut

"If you're going to be a sovereign, you've got to act like a sovereign. That does NOT include removing judges just because you don't happen to like a decision they make. Tribal courts are not supposed to be the lap dogs of tribal councils/legislatures or tribal chiefs. There seems to be a number of tribes these days that have forgotten that (kindly take note, Tribal Council of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation)." - - - Timothy Pleasant, Native American Law Blog
