LGBTQ Section Overview: Gorsuch granted Utah an extension to file an appeal against the requirement to extend spousal benefits to legally married same-sex couples Spousal Benefits Gorsuch Granted Utah An Extension To File An Appeal Against The Requirement To Extend Spousal Benefits To Same-Sex Couples. According to the Salt Lake Tribune, “Utah has an extra month to file its appeal of a federal judge’s order that the state extend spousal benefits to same-sex couples who wed in Utah during a short window in which such unions were legal. The 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday granted the state’s request for more time after setting an initial deadline of Sept. 22. The state now has until Oct. 22 to file its case with the federal appeals court, according to an order filed by Judges Neil M. Gorsuch and Robert E. Bacharach. Earlier this month, Utah had asked the court for a time extension, citing strained resources and the complexity of the Evans v. Utah lawsuit, which challenges the state to recognize the marriages of more than 1,200 gay and lesbian Utahns who married during a 17-day window when same-sex marriages were legal.” [Salt Lake Tribune, 8/26/14] 75
NATIVE AMERICANS Section Highlights: Gorsuch reprimanded Utah officials for encroaching on tribal sovereignty and jurisdiction of the Ute people. Casinos RULED AGAINST CHEROKEE CASINO INJUNCTION Gorsuch Refused To Grant A Stay Against In Injunction Against A Cherokee Casino. According to the Claremore Daily Press, “The United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians in Oklahoma on Monday learned it has lost its request to stay an injunction during an appeal to prevent its casino from closing on Friday. Judges Paul Kelly and Neil Gorsuch for the U.S. Court of Appeals 10th Circuit ruled Monday the UKB failed to prove its likelihood of success upon appeal. The court also said the tribe couldn't prove it would suffer irreparable harm if the stay isn't granted, or that public interest would be harmed, according to court documents.” [Claremore Daily Press, 8/27/13] Tribal Lands RULED THAT UTAH PROSECUTORS COULD NOT PROSECUTE TRIBAL MEMBERS FOR CRIMINES COMMITTED ON TRIBAL LAND Gorsuch Ruled That Utah Prosecutors Could Not Prosecute Ute Tribal Members For Crimes Committed On Tribal Land. According to the Salt Lake Tribune, “In a strongly-worded opinion released Tuesday, a federal appeals court ruled that Utah prosecutors have no business going after Ute tribal members who commit crimes on Indian land. The court’s decision, for the moment, halts such prosecutions. The court sent the case back to a federal judge in Salt Lake City, who has been asked by attorneys for the tribe to issue a permanent injunction against the prosecutors. The lawsuit arose after the Ute Indian Tribe of the Uintah and Ouray Reservation sued several Utah counties, accusing the counties of prosecuting crimes in areas where they have no jurisdiction ccc where only the federal government and the Ute Tribal Court can bring criminal charges. The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver sided with the reservation, saying that they had already ruled years ago that the tribal land was off-limits to state officials. The justices added that the appeal was a ‘reminder’ to state and county officials to respect and accept previous rulings ccc and if they don’t, they can expect court sanctions. The boundary dispute examined by the 10th Circuit dates back nearly 40 years, to a lawsuit filed by the Ute Tribe against the state of Utah and several local governments. In that case, the appeals court ruled the tribe still had jurisdiction over three regions in dispute: the Uncompahgre Reservation, the Uintah Valley Reservation and some national forest areas. The state and local governments appealed, but when the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear their case, ‘that ‘should have been the end of the matter,’ wrote Judge Neil Gorsuch. ‘It wasn’t,’ Gorsuch added. Instead, state officials began prosecuting tribal members for alleged crimes within the tribal boundaries set by the 10th Circuit, setting off more litigation. Eventually, the 10th Circuit ruled one of the three contested areas ccc the Uintah Valley Reservation ccc was no longer under tribal jurisdiction. ‘Naturally, the state wanted more,’ Gorsuch wrote. ‘It asked this court to extend [that] reasoning to the national forest and Uncompahgre lands’ too. The 10th Circuit refused, but the local governments once again began prosecuting tribal members for alleged crimes inside those boundaries, Gorsuch wrote.” [Salt Lake Tribune, 6/17/15] REPRIMANDED UTAH OFFICIALS FOR ENCROACHING ON TRIBAL SOVEREIGNTY AND JURISDICTION Gorsuch Reprimanded State And Local Officials For Refusing To Abide By Previous Court Rulings On Tribal Sovereignty. According to Uintah Basin Standard, “The statement goes on to reprimand state and local officials for their refusal to abide by previous rulings from the court. ‘The unavoidable fact is that nearly twenty years ago in Ute V this court explained that, between Ute III and its own disposition, ‘all boundary questions at issue’ had been finally resolved,’ wrote 76
