"In Michigan v. Bay Mills Indian Community, the question of the extent to which tribal sovereign immunity protects tribal activities off of Indian lands under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act divided the Court 5-4, but not along traditional ideological lines." - from "An interesting split and another loss for Sixth Circuit among today's SCOTUS decisions," by Jonathan H. Alder, Washington Post
