In addition to treaty rights, tribes have discovered and tested other critical areas of the law to their benefit. In Bryan v. Itasca County (1976), Ojibwe Indians Helen and Russell Bryan successfully proved that they should not be subject to state or county tax on their mobile home. The mobile home was on land held in federal trust for the Leech Lake Reservation, and the Bryans were enrolled members of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe. This was a critical case because it solidified earlier court decisions limiting state regulation of reservation affairs, even in the face of federal legislation that granted greater authority to states on tribal land.40
