*382ORDER

(Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction)

TODD R. MATHA, Associate Judge.

INTRODUCTION

The Court must determine whether to grant the November 7, 2000 Motion to Dismiss filed by the defendant, Ruka & Associates, and joined in by the co-defendant, B & K Builders, Inc. The plaintiff, Ho-Chunk Nation, has failed to substantiate a proper delegation of contractual authority to the signatories of the contracts in question. Therefore, the contracts provide no binding law for the Court to apply, resulting in a lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
