Choe-Groves grants Thlopthlocco Tribal Town's motion for declaratory judgment holding that it is "entitled to sovereign immunity in the Muscogee (Creek) Nation Courts and may, if it chooses, waive its sovereign immunity." Also, the judicial defendants' dismissal motion, in which they argue that the case is moot, is denied. The court concludes that its exercise of jurisdiction is appropriate and confirms that the plaintiff is a "federally recognized tribe, and it enjoys sovereign immunity."
