United States Ninth Circuit

Held that a man whose pickup truck was seized by tribal police after they found marijuana during a traffic stop failed to exhaust his tribal remedies against a towing company, which he claimed was liable for conversion for unlawfully releasing the truck to the Indian reservation authorities. Remanded with instructions to dismiss his complaint without prejudice to refiling after he had exhausted his tribal remedies.
