Cobell v. Norton

At a young age Eloise Cobell realized that she was entitled to much more than she had been given. She began asking why her family's land, of which the government was supposed to be a steward, was turning so small a profit. After being told she wouldn't understand the accounting, she got an accounting degree and demanded the records. After finding that many records had been burned, and almost all mismanaged, Eloise embarked upon a lawsuit against the federal government for payment owed to thousands of Indians across the country. Find out more about the suit at indiantrust.com.
