1Opinion of the CourtJustice Trieweiler
¶1 The Plaintiff, Stephen Bradley, brought this action for breach of contract by the Defendant, Crow Tribe of Indians, in the District Court for the Thirteenth Judicial District in Yellowstone County. The District Court dismissed Bradley’s complaint based on sovereign immunity. Bradley appeals from the District Court’s order dismissing the complaint. We reverse and remand for further proceedings.
¶2 The issue on appeal is whether the District Court erred when it dismissed Bradley’s claim based on its conclusion that the Tribe had not unequivocally waived its immunity from suit in state court.
