For the second time in 1½ months, a South Florida judge has dealt the Miccosukee Indian tribe a blow in a war against its former lawyers at Miami law firm Lewis Tein.

Miami-Dade Circuit Judge John Thornton, in a 14-page order, granted a motion for summary judgment in a fraud and malpractice lawsuit filed against law partners Guy Lewis and Michael Tein. Lewis is a former interim U.S. attorney, and Tein is a former federal prosecutor.
