In this case, we determine whether the doctrine of tribal sovereign immunity 4 shields Defendant Pueblo of Santa Clara, New Mexico (the Pueblo) and its employee, 5 Defendant Robert Gutierrez, from liability for an off-reservation tort. We hold 6 pursuant to Kiowa Tribe of Oklahoma v. Manufacturing Technologies, Inc., 523 U.S. 7 751 (1998), that they are immune from the claims of Plaintiffs Peggy and Timothy 8 Reed and affirm the district court.
