MANHATTAN (CN) The Cayuga Nation can continue operating its
Lakeside Entertainment casino in a Finger Lakes village after the Second Circuit put a decades-long land dispute to rest Tuesday.
Finding that gambling on reservation lands is governed by the National Indian Gaming Commission, a panel of three appellate judges affirmed that the casino qualifies as a Class II facility under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act
“This case turns on a straightforward question of statutory interpretation,” U.S. Circuit Judge Gerard E. Lynch wrote for the court. “As we and our sister circuits have held, IGR preempts all state and local legislation and regulation relating to gambling conducted on ‘Indian lands,’ as defined in that statute.
