![["The memorandum discusses the distribution of judgment funds awarded to the Delaware Tribes in Oklahoma, specifically the exclusion of the Kansas Delawares from the distribution. The issue arose due to a lawsuit filed by the Kansas Delawares, leading to a Supreme Court decision that they were not entitled to share in the funds. Both the Oklahoma Delawares and the Kansas Delawares are seeking support from the Oklahoma Congressional Delegation for differing outcomes. The BIA had prepared to distribute the funds, but now must wait for the Supreme Court's decision on the Kansas Delawares' request for a rehearing. The exclusion of the Kansas Delawares was a result of strict eligibility criteria established by the Oklahoma Delawares to prevent delays in fund distribution. The memorandum also mentions upcoming meetings with tribal officials to discuss the issue further."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_36_10_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Senate%20Committee%20Memos,%201973%20Nov.%20-%201978%20June.,%201973-1978%20-%20NEW/thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_36_10_0011_thumbnail.jpg "Legal Dispute over the Distribution of the Delaware Judgment Funds: A Historical Overview")
