Title: NM Tribe blocks easement to public land, claims immunity
Post by: fireweed on June 03, 2022, 08:49:15 AM
Interesting land access "cautionary tale" from New Mexico.  Tribes cannot be sued because of sovereign immunity, and thus claim they can simply ignore easements in land they acquire.                                        https://nmwildlife.org/cochiti-pueblos-blockade-of-forest-service-roads-prompts-landowner-lawsuit/

Looks like the state is kneeling to the Pueblos who reneged on their contract. The longer this takes, the less likely Martin and others will be able to access their properties.

Some dirty politics took place on this one.

Get the biggest cat one can find, Cat D9, etc, and plow right in.


If Obama taught us anything it's to ignore the powers that be.

Pause as we can clearly see where this is going.

Do not troll other members regardless of your stance or opinions.  Childish  call outs will get the thread and the next one and the next one shut down. Discuss, debate, but keep your keyboard commando out of the discussion.  Avoiding the filters put in place is also not acceptable.

Reading this article for me the take away message was for local governments and states is to be very careful and deliberate about when ANY land is put into trust for a tribe.

They were careful and the tribe agreed to the easements in the contract...and then just decided to violate the contract.
