Questions presented:
The questions presented in this case are:
1. Whether Indian tribal immunity from suit allows the Indian tribe, a price fixing competitor, to be immune from federal anti-trust laws?
2. Whether the officials of an Indian tribe, acting beyond their authority, can be protected by tribal immunity when prospective relief is sought?
Here is the opinion in B. O. v. Tex. Dep’t of Family & Protective Servs. (Tex. App.):
B.O. v. Texas Dept. of Family & Prot. Services
An excerpt:
In her second issue, Grandmother contends that the trial court erroneously excluded evidence of the children’s Native American heritage. Grandmother argues that because the trial court sustained an objection lodged when counsel for Father stated during opening argument that the evidence would show that Father was of Native American ancestry, there was a “chilling effect” on the presentation of evidence regarding the children’s heritage and therefore the jury was deprived of information about the children’s Native American background. We are unable to consider this argument, however, because neither Father nor Grandmother preserved it for appellate review.

Here is the opinion in In re A.M.
The court’s syllabus:
M.W., mother of the minor, and the Pit River Tribe (Tribe) appeal from orders terminating parental rights after reversal of the previous termination orders and remand in case No. C067143 for a new hearing on mother‟s petition for modification. (Welf. & Inst. Code, §§ 366.26, 395; further undesignated statutory references are to the Welfare and Institutions Code.) Mother argues the court erred in denying her petition for modification (§ 388) and failed to apply the Indian child exception to termination of parental rights. The Tribe raises various issues related to tribal customary adoption (TCA) and the Yolo County Department of Employment and Social Services‟ (Department) inaction with respect to TCA. We affirm the juvenile court’s orders.

An excerpt:
“At least half the country thinks the mascot issue is insignificant. But I think it’s indicative of the ways in which Indians have no cultural power,” he said. “We’re still placed in the past. So we’re either in the past or we’re only viewed through casinos.”
To be shown this weekend on Moyers and Company.
