Quechan Tribe and Rosette Firm Largely Prevail against Williams & Cochrane Firm
First, we want to express our deepest sympathy to the family and colleagues of Rob Rosette, who recently walked on far too young. Rob’s impact on Indian country and the practice of Indian law cannot be understated. He was a true giant in the field. Over the years, Rob and his firm hired many of our alums from Michigan State’s Indigenous Law and Policy Center, and for that we are grateful. He will be missed.

Questions presented:
- Whether a court can invalidate an agreement to have an arbitrator resolve questions of arbitrability (a “delegation clause”) based on the court’s interpretation of a separate choice-of-law provision.
- Whether sovereign immunity bars private plaintiffs from suing tribal government officials, in their official
capacities, for alleged violations of state law
Lower court materials here.
Here is the petition in a related case, Asner v. Hengle:
Question presented:
Can a federal court refuse to enforce the delegation clause of an arbitration agreement on the ground that a choice-of-law provision applicable to the arbitration agreement as a whole prospectively waives federal rights?
