Mescalero arbitration panel fills with ASU professor
An Arizona State University law professor Paul Bender joins Fred Ragsdale and Glenn Feldman as the three member arbitration panel to decide if the Mescalero Apache tribe should pay 16 percent of its Inn of the Mountain Gods slot machine revenues to New Mexico. The panel will schedule a preliminary hearing between Oct 26 and Nov 2. The tribe signed a 1997 compact to allow casino gambling but has refused to pay, arguing the revenue sharing violates federal law.
