2 BIG LAGOON RANCHERIA V. STATE OF CALIFORNIA

ORDER

The opinion filed June 4, 2015, and published at — F.3d

—, 2015 WL 34998884, is amended as follows:

At slip opinion page six, line eight, insert a new footnote

1 after <district court.> but before <Id.> as follows:

<In Seminole Tribe v. Florida, 517 U.S. 44,

75 (1996), the Supreme Court held that

Section 2710(d)(7) does not abrogate the

states’ Eleventh Amendment sovereign

immunity. California’s sovereign immunity is

not implicated here, however, because the

State has waived its immunity to suit in this

context. See Rincon Band of Luiseno Mission

Indians of Rincon Reservation v.

Schwarzenegger, 602 F.3d 1019, 1026 (9th

Cir. 2010).>.

At slip opinion page twelve, line eleven insert <under

Federal jurisdiction in 1934 and was not> after <tribe was

not> and before <recognized>.

At slip opinion page twelve, line fourteen insert <, 395>

after <385>.

At slip opinion page eighteen, lines four–five remove <if

the Secretary of the Interior approves the compact> and

replace that text with <once the Secretary of the Interior

prescribes procedures to govern gaming that are consistent

with that selection>.

With the foregoing amendments to the opinion,

California’s Petition for En Banc Panel Rehearing is
