Hollywood Mobile Estates v. Seminole Tribe — Sovereign Immunity

In Hollywood Mobile Estates v. Seminole Tribe, the Florida Southern District Court refused to grant an emergency motion for a preliminary injunction against the tribe. The court reasoned it is unlikely that the plaintiff will succeed in its claims against the tribe because the tribe has raised sovereign immunity as a defense. The underlying dispute is over a lease.
