Description
The Western Shoshone National Council and individual Western Shoshone (Shoshone) appeal from the district courts summary judgment in favor of the State of Nevada Department of Wildlife (Nevada), in their action to enjoin certain wildlife laws and regulations. The Shoshone argue that the district court erred by holding that an award by the Indian Claims Commission (Commission) conclusively established that Shoshone aboriginal and treaty-reserved rights to hunt and fish had been extinguished. The district court had jurisdiction over this case pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ร§ร§ 1362 and 2201. We have jurisdiction over this timely appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ร§ 1291. We affirm.
