The Yakama Nation is an Indian tribe with its reservation in southern Washington.[2] The tribe comprises 14 distinct Indian tribes that the U.S. banded together in the 1850s for the purpose of treaty making. The current treaty was ratified by the Senate in 1859, under this treaty the tribe reserved to itself Шаблон:Convert for its reservation, as well as the right to exercise certain reserved rights on ceded lands and usual and accustomed locations. The reservation has tribal land and land held in fee. The fee land is owned by both tribal members and non-Indians, and tribal members are outnumbered greatly by non-Indians.[3]

Supreme Court

After a series of legal challenges in lower courts, the case was brought before the United States Supreme Court on appeal. The Supreme Court affirmed the lower court's decision regarding the Brendale property but reversed the decision regarding the Wilkinson property. The Court held that under the Indian General Allotment Act, 24 Stat. 388, the Yakima Nation no longer retained the exclusive use and benefit of the land and had no regulatory power over lands held in fee by non-tribal Indians where its interest in regulating the fee land was not demonstrably serious and its political integrity, the economic security, or health and welfare of the Yakima Nation was not imperiled.[1]
