053012P.pdf   08/03/2006  State of Minnesota  v.  John Hoeven
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  05-3012
   District of North Dakota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Bright, Author, with Riley and Smith, Circuit Judges]
   Civil case - Constitutional law. North Dakota laws imposing 
   restrictions on out-of-state hunters do not violate the U.S. Constitution;
   Minnesota's dormant Commerce Clause claims ended with the passage of
   the Reaffirmation of State Regulation of Resident and Nonresident
   Hunting and Fishing Act of 2005, and the district court need not have
   reached the merits of Minnesota's claim under the dormant Commerce
   Clause; North Dakota laws authorizing residents to hunt without a license
   on land they own or lease does not violate the Privileges and Immunity
   Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
