Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

MURPHY, Circuit Judge.

The central question raised in this appeal is whether certain aspects of the district court’s 1994 consent decree 1 involving the City of Duluth and the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa should be dissolved. After the National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC) decided that the parties’ 1994 agreement was incompatible with federal law, the Band moved for dissolution of the consent decree. The City opposed the motion, and the district court granted it in part and denied it in part. Both parties appeal. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand.
