An Arizona appeals court panel ruled Nov. 29 that the Havasupai can proceed with a lawsuit that claims university researchers misused blood samples taken from tribal members.
Overturning a judge’s 2007 dismissal of the case, a split Arizona Court of Appeals panel said the Havasupai and other plaintiffs had provided enough information to go to trial or at least enough to go forward in trial court pending further proceedings.
