Here is the opinion in Thomas v. Mundell, a case brought by the Maricopa County Attorney and others, challening the establishment of separate “DUI courts” in Phoenix for Spanish-speaking and American Indian people. The court tossed the challenge on standing grounds.

An excerpt:

With respect to the Native American DUI court, the amended complaint alleges that probationers here are generally required to appear on the same day. Probationers in the Native American DUI court also allegedly participate in “cultural programs, specially designed for them, such as being sent to sweat lodges and participating in talking circles.” Administrators of the DUI court program also allegedly treat participants in the Native American DUI court “as a separate group” for grant reporting purposes.
