Minnesota asked the Eighth Circuit on Wednesday to clarify whether a federal court has jurisdiction to hear its case that has unsuccessfully sought to stop a tribal lawsuit over the contentious Enbridge Line 3 pipeline after a district judge recently ruled that the White Earth Band of Ojibwe Tribal Court's sovereign immunity bars her from granting injunctive relief.
A tribe's lawsuit against Minnesota officials over the Enbridge pipeline expansion was stayed Tuesday pending an appeal in tribal court, as the state makes a fourth attempt to escape a novel challenge to the state's allegedly illegal groundwater grab.
