outburst on the nightearly morning

resisting arrest on that early morning.

over me because I usually go along
peacefully with Warm Springs finest

Also, to my sister Jessica Tufti

severely damaged my sister's Toyota
pickup by busting out her taillights.
Taylor, sorry for the
misunderstanding that we had. I know
that I was highly intoxicated and if
you all didn't take me to the jail to be
detoxed, I would have froze out there
on the road.
Finally, to the community, sorry
for my actions that early morning
and I hope that you accept my utmost
apology because I am truly sorry for
my behavior.
With all due respect,
Tim J. Wainanwit

Have you or a family member had
problems with SSI overpayments or
loss of benefits caused by lease in
come from your Indian Trust Lands?
If so, you may be entitled to have
your debt erased or maybe even
maybe get some money back.
Please read this notice and call
Evergreen Legal Services at 1-800-631-1323.
If you have questions or
need free advice.
If you or your spouse or your child
received lease money from your In
dian trust lands anytime between
March 3 1 , 1987 and January 1 , 1994,
which caused an SSI overpayment,
and you were not living in the State
of Washington at the time, you may
not have to repay all or pan of the
overpayment, or you may be able to
get a refund of money that has been
collected from your SSI checks.
The possible refund or reduction
of your SSI overpayment is the result
of a settlement of Barney vs. Shalala,
a class action filed on behalf of eld
erly and disabled Native Americans
in Washington Slate. Federal law has
also changed and beginning January
1994, up to 52,000 per year of lease
income from Indian lands will not be
counted against you as income for
purpose of SSI eligibility.
You may not have to repay an SSI
overpayment because of income you
received from Indian trust lands, or
you may receive a refund of SS I, if all
of the following apply to you: 1) You
had an overpayment because of lease
income from Indian land; and 2) your
overpaymentexisted as of October 1,
1993, or was assessed after that date
for any period between March 31,
1987, and January 1, 1994; and 3)
you were living in Washington state
when you received the lease income.
In certain situations, refunds could
go to family members of deceased
SSI recipients who would have ben
efited from the lawsuit
You may contact the lawyers rep
resenting the elderly and disabled
Native Americans at Evergreen Le
gal Services, 5 10 Larson Building, 6
South Second Street, Yakima, WA
98901 (509) 575-5593 or toll-free at
1-800-631-1323 to make a claim or
for further free information, or con
tact a private attorney, or contact the
Social Security Administration. The
Bureau of Indian Affairs agency so
cial service offices also have claim
forms and information. If you think
you or a family or household mem
ber might be a class member, or eli
gible to receive a refund of a de
ceased spouse, or disabled child, you
should file a claim to find out for
sure. You may file for a family mem
ber or anyone else. Any person can
file for you.
It will speed up the claim process
if you andor your other family
members) with Indian lease income
affecting anyone's SSI will also sign
a release to allow Evergreen Legal
Services to check Bureau of Indian
Affairs records (your IIM records) to
see that the lease information Social
Security has is correct and current. If
you do not wish to sign the release
now, Evergreen or Social Security
hay write at a later time to request
your permission to look at your IIM
records (if the SSI lease information
for March 1987 through December
1993 appears incomplete or incor
rect) before the claim you file is pro
cessed by Social Security.
