TRINIDAD – Cher-Ae Heights Indian Community of the Trinidad Rancheria Chairman Garth Sundberg of the Cher-Ae Heights Indian Community of the Trinidad Rancheria made the following statement regarding Jason Self, et al. v. Cher-Ae Heights Indian Community of the Trinidad Rancheria:
The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear a case brought against our Tribe, letting stand lower court decisions from both the California Court of Appeal and the Humboldt County Superior Court dismissing the lawsuit.
On behalf of the entire Tribal Council, I am pleased to share that the Supreme Court’s decision closes the book on a case brought against our Tribe to interfere with our efforts to restore a significant part of our Tribal ancestral homeland on Trinidad Harbor and to revitalize a fundamental aspect of our culture.
