ORDER ON DEFENDANT’S RENEWED MOTION TO DISMISS ON EXHAUSTION GROUNDS
JOHN A. WOODCOCK, JR., District Judge.
Directed by the First Circuit to determine whether exceptions to the administrative exhaustion requirement justify judicial retention of this case, the Court concludes that none of the exceptions applies. Despite the Bureau of Indian Affairs’ inept defense of this action, characterized by contradiction and delay, the benefit of belated administrative review exceeds the need for immediate judicial resolution.
