Attorneys for the Fort Sill Apache filed a motion Tuesday, calling for the commission to be held in contempt.
A previous order required the commission to reconsider its 2015 decision as part of a settlement process after receiving an opinion from the U.S. Interior Department on the tribe's eligibility to conduct gaming in Luna County at Akela Flats.
The commission notified the tribe last week there were no grounds for reconsideration.
Fort Sill Chairman Jeff Haozous says the commission is violating the tribe's right to a speedy resolution of the gaming dispute.
