A federal judge ruled this week an 1855 treaty "cannot plausibly be read" to create a 337-square-mile Indian reservation on lands in a northern Michigan vacation-destination area. The Little Traverse Bay Band of Odawa Indians sued the state in 2015, claiming the 1855 Treaty of Detroit established its reservation on lands that now include Petoskey, Charlevoix and Harbor Springs, and it wanted the court to pave the way to create a reservation there.
