As you may recall, the Littlefields continued their assault on our land by filing a lawsuit in Boston District Court in December of 2021. However, in February 2023, the Honorable District Court Judge Angel Kelly affirmed the Tribe’s reservation lands and ruled in favor of the Department of Interior and the Tribe. The Littlefields have since appealed Judge Kelly’s decision to the First Circuit Court of Appeals. Tomorrow, a panel of three Circuit Court Judges will hear the matter, with oral argument scheduled to begin at 9:30 AM.
