OPINION AND ORDER
CRABB, Chief Judge.
Plaintiff Lac Courte Oreilles Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians has petitioned for attorneys’ fees under 42 U.S.C. § 1988 for what may be considered the first phase of this lawsuit. 1 The first phase began when the original complaint was filed in 1974 and ended with the denial of certiorari by the United States Supreme Court on October 3, 1983, which left standing the decision of the court of appeals in plaintiff’s favor. Lac Courte Oreilles Band v. Voigt, 700 F.2d 341 (7th Cir.), cert. denied, 464 U.S. 805, 104 S.Ct. 53, 78 L.Ed.2d 72 (1983).
