Followup - Feds ask for dismissal of lawsuit over remains of Geronimo

The NY Daily News reports:  "The U.S. Justice Department is asking a federal judge to dismiss a lawsuit brought by descendants of Native American leader Geronimo, whose remains were purported to be stolen by members of a secret society at Yale University.
The government filed the motion June 10 to oppose a lawsuit filed in February by 20 of Geronimo's descendants, who want to rebury the Apache warrior near his birthplace in southern New Mexico's Gila Wilderness."
