Book excerpt: 18 U.S.C. section 1161 and section 26(C) of the Indian Gaming Compact between the State of Kansas and the Sac and Fox Nation of Missouri in Kansas and Nebraska each provide for regulation of tribal liquor sales in accordance with state law. The United States Supreme Court in Rice v. Rehner held that 18 U.S.C. section 1161 confers concurrent jurisdiction on the states and the tribes over liquor transactions in Indian country. This grant of authority has been held to include regulatory as well as substantive law. Thus, the Sac and Fox Nation will be required to obtain a state license before beginning liquor sales at the tribal casino. Because the casino is located in Brown County which has not opted to allow drinking establishments within the county in accordance with Article 15, Section 10 of the Kansas Constitution and K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 41-2646, the Tribe may not operate a drinking establishment at the casino. The Tribe may, however, apply for a club B license. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 41-2601; K.S.A. 41-2634; K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 41-2641; 41-2642; K.S.A. 41-2646; Kan.
