The plaintiff, CECGAC, have moved to enforce the judgment rendered earlier this month regarding the Buffalo parcel where the Seneca Nation of Indians have been operating a casino. The United States has moved to remand the case back the National Indian Gaming Commission to reconsider the parcel in light of the new Section 20 regulations [25 CFR Part 292], and the Senecas have filed an amicus brief in support.

The district court in CECGAC v. Hogen held that the NIGC’s determination that Seneca gaming at its Buffalo parcel was valid under the land claims settlement exception was arbitrary and capricious, because no extant Seneca land claim existed at the time of the time of the settlement.
