Federal Indian Law has been in transition for nearly 130 years, but there has been an acceleration in the pace of Supreme Court cases. Long protected by the Court, tribal leaders follow each case closely and, often with a minimal understanding, use them as a basis for policies. Merrion vs Kicarilla Apache Tribes upheld the Tribe's right to impose a severance tax on minerals extracted from land leased to private lessees. A review of the case traces pertinent legislative and legal precedents, primarily the Mineral Leasing Act of 1938. 51 references. (DCK)
