State seeks halt to Miami Tribe casino plan in Kansas
The Kansas attorney general filed a petition in U.S. District Court in Kansas City asking a federal judge to pause any further Interior Department review of the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma casino plan near La Cygne Lake until a hearing can be held. The state argues the proposal targets non Indian land and would bypass state compacts, urging the court to block the 60 day response deadline and scrutinize the jurisdiction and authority cited by federal officials.
