Attorney Jeffrey B. Sienkiewicz has been fending off land claims by the Schaghticoke Indian Tribe since the early 1980s.

A little over a year ago, the former Kent town attorney who now has a private practice in New Milford thought he was finally done facing off against the tribe that has occupied a 400-acre reservation overlooking the Housatonic River since the 1700s. "But now, it looks like they're going to get another bite at the apple," he said.
