Oct. 26, 2015: Pauma Band v State of California - Final Ruling
The state of California owes $36.2 million to the Pauma Band of Luiseño Indians for misleading the tribe, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on Monday.
A 1999 compact authorized the tribe to offer up to 2,000 Class III devices at the Casino Pauma. But the state refused to allow the tribe to reach that limit so a new agreement was reached in 2004 that included a higher revenue sharing rate in exchange for more machines.
