FresnoBee.com: California: Federal mediator to help resolve tribal dispute

FresnoBee.com: California: Federal mediator to help resolve tribal dispute: "A federal mediator has been asked to resolve a San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians tribal membership dispute.

The lineage of about 80 tribal members is at stake.

Tribal Chairman Allen Lawson wrote the Bureau of Indian Affairs asking for mediation services to resolve feuding factions in the tribe, which operates the Valley View Casino in the Valley Center area.

The bureau says tribal management of the casino operations are subject to federal intervention if stability doesn't return to the five-member San Pasqual governing council.
