TOWN OF LEDYARD: THE PREEMPTION OF STATE TAXES UNDER BRACKER, THE INDIAN TRADER STATUTES, AND THE INDIAN GAMING REGULATORY ACT EDWARD A. LOWE The Indian Tribes of the United States occupy an often ambiguous place in our legal system, and nowhere is that ambiguity more pronounced than in the realm of state taxation. States are, for the most part, preempted from taxing the Indian Tribes, but something unique happens when the state attempts to levy a tax on non-Indian vendors employed by a Tribe for work on a reservation. The state certainly has a significant justification for imposing its tax on non-Indians, but at what point does the non-Indian vendor’s relationship with the Tribe impede the state’s right to tax? What happens when the taxed activity is a sale to the Tribe? And what does it mean when the taxed activity has connections to Indian Gaming? This Comment explores three preemption standards as they were interpreted by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in a case between the State of Connecticut and the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe.

  • (King Philip's War), 1675-1676 Dissertation Presented in Partial
    Connecticut Unscathed: Victory in The Great Narragansett War (King Philip’s War), 1675-1676 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Major Jason W. Warren, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: John F. Guilmartin Jr., Advisor Alan Gallay, Kristen Gremillion Peter Mansoor, Geoffrey Parker Copyright by Jason W. Warren 2011 Abstract King Philip’s War (1675-1676) was one of the bloodiest per capita in American history. Although hostile native groups damaged much of New England, Connecticut emerged unscathed from the conflict. Connecticut’s role has been obscured by historians’ focus on the disasters in the other colonies as well as a misplaced emphasis on “King Philip,” a chief sachem of the Wampanoag groups. Although Philip formed the initial hostile coalition and served as an important leader, he was later overshadowed by other sachems of stronger native groups such as the Narragansetts. Viewing the conflict through the lens of a ‘Great Narragansett War’ brings Connecticut’s role more clearly into focus, and indeed enables a more accurate narrative for the conflict. Connecticut achieved success where other colonies failed by establishing a policy of moderation towards the native groups living within its borders. This relationship set the stage for successful military operations. Local native groups, whether allied or neutral did not assist hostile Indians, denying them the critical intelligence necessary to coordinate attacks on Connecticut towns. The English colonists convinced allied Mohegan, Pequot, and Western Niantic warriors to support their military operations, giving Connecticut forces a decisive advantage in the field.

  • The Mohegan Tribal Government the Mohegan Tribe Is a Sovereign
    The Mohegan Tribal Government The Mohegan Tribe is a sovereign, federally recognized Indian nation. Its reservation is located on the Thames River near Uncasville, Connecticut. The Mohegan Nation exercises full civil jurisdiction and concurrent criminal jurisdiction over its lands. The Tribe is governed by a Tribal Constitution, which empowers a nine-member Tribal Council to serve as both the legislative and executive branch, and a seven-member Council of Elders which is responsible for judicial oversight and cultural integrity. The Chairman of the Tribal Council, currently Kevin Brown “Red Eagle,” serves as Chief Executive of the Tribe. The Tribal Council and Council of Elders serve four year, staggered terms. A Tribal Court system exists to adjudicate constitutional as well as civil issues. Other Tribal leaders include Chief Lynn “Mutáwi Mutáhash” (Many Hearts) Malerba, Medicine Woman and Tribal Historian Melissa Tantaquidgeon Zobel, Pipe Carriers Bruce “Two Dogs” Bozsum and Christopher Harris “Painted Turtle,” Firekeeper Jay Ihloff “Two Trees,” and Lodgekeeper Charlie Strickland “Two Bears.” The Tribal Government has numerous administrative departments, including Cultural and Community Programs, Education, Library and Archives, Gaming Commission, Health and Human Services, Housing Authority, Public Safety, Utility Authority, Land Preservation and Planning and Environmental Protection. Current enrollment of the Tribe stands at approximately 2,100 individuals, most of whom reside in Connecticut near ancestral Tribal lands.

  • About Quinnipiac University 1
    About Quinnipiac University 1 ABOUT QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY Quinnipiac University is a private, coeducational, nonsectarian institution in Hamden and North Haven, Connecticut, offering more than 140 programs to an estimated 6,800 undergraduates and 3,000 graduate, medical and law students. Quinnipiac prepares graduates as enlightened global citizens equipped for the challenges and opportunities of 21st- century careers. The university, founded in New Haven in 1929 with an emphasis on business, was known as the Connecticut College of Commerce until it changed its name in 1951 to Quinnipiac College. Soon thereafter, having outgrown its New Haven surroundings, the school moved to its 250-acre Mount Carmel Campus in Hamden, Connecticut, 90 minutes north of New York City, two hours from Boston and eight miles from metropolitan New Haven. In 2000, the name Quinnipiac University was adopted to better reflect the quality and diversity of the school’s programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Over the years, Quinnipiac has experienced dramatic and steady growth. Its nine schools offer programs in business, communications, education, engineering, health sciences, law, medicine, nursing and the arts and sciences and it is among only 2.1 percent of all U.S. universities with a medical school and a law school. Over the past 20 years, Quinnipiac has expanded to three campuses in southeastern Connecticut and 21 athletic programs in Division I. It is home to the Quinnipiac University Poll, widely viewed as the gold standard in national and statewide polling. The Mount Carmel Campus, next to Sleeping Giant State Park, contains academic buildings and residence halls.

Fielding, an aged Indian woman resident at Mohegan, near Norwich, Conn., who has kept up her scanty knowledge of her early speech chiefly by talking to herself.
