133773P.pdf   06/12/2015  Ramona Two Shields  v.  Spencer Wilkinson, Jr.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-3773
   U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota - Bismarck   
   [PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Smith and Gruender, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Indian law. In putative class action alleging the U.S. 
   breached its fiduciary duty by approving leases for oil and gas mining 
   rights and that the defendant bidders aided, abetted and induced the U.S. 
   to breach that duty, the district court did not err in determining the 
   U.S. is a required party which should be joined if feasible under Fed. R. 
   Civ. P. 19(a); since the U.S. has not waived its sovereign immunity, it 
   cannot be joined, and the district court did not err in dismissing the 
   case under Rule 19(b).
