[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 2584935, member: 55"]I agree that is a very difficult situation, and the answer probably depends greatly on specific facts that are not available or appropriate here; and on the individuals involved. I'd hope that the parties could sit down together, perhaps with a mediator or mediators, and come to some agreement. Sometimes such issues end up in court, and sometimes there is no way to avoid that. I've seen situations where the current owner decided to donate the item; and situations where the tribe agreed to pay a reasonable price. I wish all situations could be that easy; but life is often not so simple as one might wish.[/QUOTE]
