Federal judge rules against Encana’s efforts to avoid wrongful death lawsuit in tribal court by Ben Neary, April 24, 2012, Associated Press
In a ruling hailed as a victory for American Indian sovereignty, a federal judge has tossed out a lawsuit that Encana Oil and Gas Inc. had filed against a tribal judge on the Wind River Indian Reservation. … Encana sued St. Clair in February over his ruling that his court had jurisdiction over the company in a wrongful death lawsuit. St. Clair ruled in December that Encana had to answer a tribal court lawsuit brought by the estate of Jeremy Jorgenson, a young Shoshone man who died on Jan. 1, 2009. According to statements in court papers, Jorgenson died in a car wreck after drinking at a drilling site operated by DHS Drilling Co., a contractor for Encana.
