United States Ninth Circuit
Alvarez v. Tracy, 12-15788
In an updated opinion, denial of petition for writ of habeas corpus, brought by an enrolled member of the Gila River Indian Community claiming a violation of the Indian Civil Rights Act (ICRA), is reversed where, after reviewing new information in the petition, the Community deliberately waived any non-exhaustion defense stemming from petitioner's failure to file a direct appeal.
