On December 7, 2006, the Washington Supreme Court held that tribal governmental corporations that conduct commercial enterprises outside reservation borders were protected by tribal sovereign immunity, and that the tribal supervisor was also immune as to actions he took pursuant to his official capacity. Wright v.
