ORDER
The opinion filed September 16, 1998, and reported at 39 F. Supp.2d 1227 (E.D. Cal. 1998), is withdrawn and the judgment entered on the same date is vacated.
I did not authorize the publication of the withdrawn opinion.
Further, because of the addition of subdivision (f) to Article IV, § 19 of the California Constitution and pursuant to the stipulation of the parties, it is ordered that a new judgment be entered declaring that the State of California expressly permits the operation of slot machines, lottery games, and banking and percentage games by federally recognized Indian tribes on Indian lands in California, when Compacts have been entered into in accordance with subdivision (f) and federal law. Each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys' fees.
The term "Indian lands" is defined in the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, 25 U.S.C. § 2703.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
