The Supreme Court, of the federal united States refuses to hear Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, denying that the Court has the authority to grant original jurisdiction to the Cherokee Nation as it is subject to the jurisdiction of Georgia, and not a sovereign State. Indi(genous Americ)an tribes are not foreign nations, but that “the relationship of the tribes to the United States resembles that of a ‘ward to its guardian.’”
