The State of Idaho and the Dept. of Interior had filed motions to dismiss. The district court granted Idaho’s motion, but held that the gambling addicts, who are neighbors to the tribal casino, had standing to challenge the compact approval by the Secretary.
The plaintiffs had previously challenged the compact under Idaho state law, losing in the Idaho Supreme Court.
