Abstract:
Recent court decisions upheld the contention of the government that the Qualla band of Cherokee Indians in North Carolina are living in tribal relationship and that they are living on a reservation. The principal contention is that the Qualla Tribe does not hold the same status as Indians living on reservations ceded to tribes in the western part of the country.
