Maine Indian land claims unsettled again
Maine Attorney General Joseph E. Brennan refused to negotiate an out-of-court settlement on 12.5 million acres claimed by Passamaquoddy and Penobscot tribes. He cited public asset concerns and urged that the tribes prove merit, while officials note potential impacts on municipal bonds and mortgages. The tribes value the claims at about 25 billion dollars and seek talks through federal civil rights channels.
