The Attorney General suggests that if Congress decides to make a payment to the tribe, they should refer the matter to the Court of Claims to determine the amount owed after considering set-offs and counterclaims. The memorandum also highlights various set-offs and counterclaims that have been rejected or accepted by the Court of Claims in similar cases. It suggests that Congress should consider reducing the claims of Indian tribes against the United States by the amounts expended by the Government on their behalf.
