Supreme Court of the United States ————
No. 15-___ IN THE Supreme Court of the United States ———— TIMOTHY WHITE, ROBERT L. BETTINGER and MARGARET SCHOENINGER, Petitioners, v. REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, et al., Respondents. ———— On Petition for a Writ of Certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ———— PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI ———— JAMES MCMANIS Counsel of Record MICHAEL REEDY CHRISTINE PEEK LAUREN COATNEY TYLER ATKINSON MCMANIS FAULKNER 50 W. San Fernando St. 10th Floor San Jose, CA 95113 (408) 279-8700 [email protected] November 19, 2015 WILSON-EPES PRINTING CO., INC. – (202) 789-0096 – WASHINGTON, D. C. 20002 QUESTIONS PRESENTED The Native American Graves Protection and Repat- riation Act (NAGPRA), which governs repatriation of human remains to Native American tribes, contains an enforcement provision that states, “The United States district courts shall have jurisdiction over any action brought by any person alleging a violation of this chapter and shall have the authority to issue such orders as may be necessary to enforce the provisions of this chapter.” 25 U.S.C. § 3013. Over a strong dissent, a divided Ninth Circuit panel held that a party can prevent judicial review of controversial repatriation decisions by claiming a tribe is a “required party” under Rule 19 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, if the tribe invokes tribal immunity. The questions presented are: 1. Whether Rule 19 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure mandates that a district court dismiss any case in which a Native American tribe with immunity is deemed to be a “required party.” 2. Whether tribal immunity extends to cases where Rule 19 is the only basis for adding a tribe, no relief against the tribe is sought, and no other forum can issue a binding order on the dispute; and if so, whether Congress abrogated tribal immunity as a defense to claims arising under NAGPRA. -
