Defendant-respondent Gerald Cleo Tinno, a duly enrolled member of the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes of Indians, resides on the Fort
Hall Indian Reservation located near Pocatello. He was charged by a complaint with taking a chinook salmon with a spear from
the Yankee Fork of the Salmon River in Custer County on July 16, 1968. Both spear fishing and taking salmon at that particular
time and location were violations of state fishing regulations. Trial of the charges was held before a Justice of the peace. Respondent admitted the actions charged but as a defense alleged
a superior federal right exempting him from the state fishing regulations based on the Treaty with the Eastern Band Shoshone
and Bannock, of July 3, 1868, 15 Stat. 673 (hereinafter referred to as the Fort Bridger Treaty). Respondent was adJudged guilty
and he appealed to the district court for a trial de novo.
