Tenth Circuit
Tenth Circuit Issues Quiet Title Act Opinion: Limitations Period Expired on Woman’s Claims 18 Years Before She Purchased Property
Ouch. Here it today’s opinion in George v. United States.
A taste from the opinion:
It is this last feature of the QTA clock that poses the real problem for Ms. George. A problem because, just as the district court held, Ms. George’s predecessor in interest, Mr. Hamilton, objectively should have known of the government’s claim of right to a fence-free road as early as 1979, about thirty years before she brought suit in 2009. And this means Ms. George has come to court some 18 years too late to do anything about her problem.

Tenth Circuit Affirms Conviction of Indian Gaming Player Who Embezzled Funds from Choctaw
Here are the available materials in United States v. Bryant:
Here is a description of the crime:
On June 20, 2010, Ms. Bryant played a $1 slot machine at the Choctaw Casino and Resort, an Indian gaming establishment. She won 90 cents and took the ticket to her sister, who worked as a cashier. Her sister, and later codefendant, paid Ms. Bryant $4,000.91. They later split the proceeds. R. 1, 26. The casino noticed the missing $4,000 and saw the transaction as recorded by cameras. On appeal, Ms. Bryant contends that no federal law was violated. Her two-step argument is as follows: the statute upon which she was charged, 18 U.S.C. § 1168, prohibits theft by “an officer, employee, or individual licensee of a gaming establishment operated by or for or licensed by an Indian tribe.” But
she was not a casino employee, which, for purposes of this appeal, we take as true.
