Wolfchild v. United States

OPINION AND ORDER

LETTOW, Judge.

This longstanding dispute between the United States (“the government”) and approximately 20,750 persons of Indian descent (collectively “plaintiffs” or “plaintiffs and plaintiff-intervenors”) involves revenue derived from lands reserved for eligible Indians. On August 18, 2011, the court directed entry of a partial final judgment under Rule 54(b) of the Rules of the Court of Federal Claims (“RCFC”), awarding plaintiffs and plaintiff-intervenors $673,944 for their statutory use-restriction claims.
