Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox SCOTUS case Herrera v. Wyoming, No. 17-532, 587 U.S. ___ (2019), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that Wyoming's statehood did not void the Crow Tribe's right to hunt on "unoccupied lands of the United States" under an 1868 treaty, and that the Bighorn National Forest did not automatically become "occupied" when the forest was created.[1][2]
Background
In January 2014 Clayvin Herrera, a member of the Crow Tribe of Indians,[3] along with several other members of his tribe, followed a group of Rocky Mountain elk from the Crow reservation in Montana into Bighorn National Forest in Wyoming. There, they shot three elk, taking them home for food. Wyoming officials cited Herrera and his companions for hunting out of season, a violation of state law.[4][5]
Herrera's two companions both pleaded guilty to the poaching charges and paid the fines that Wyoming imposed.[6] Herrera, however, argued that their hunt was lawful, citing the Treaty of Fort Laramie, which allowed them to hunt on "unoccupied lands".[4]
Wyoming disagreed, arguing that Herrera's claim had been invalidated by the Supreme Court 120 years prior, in Ward v. Race Horse.[4] There, the Court held that Wyoming's admission into the Union had superseded the rights of Indians to hunt there,[7] because it had joined the Union "on the same footing" as the other states, giving it control over the natural resources within its border.[6]
Case
The Supreme Court accepted the case to answer the question:[3] Шаблон:Blockquote In a 5 to 4 decision, the split Court ruled that Wyoming's admission did not abrogate the Indians' rights.[3] The majority opinion was authored by Sotomayor, joined by Ginsburg, Breyer, Kagan, and Gorsuch. The dissenters were Roberts, Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh.
