*Subject: Wyandotte Tribe of Okahoma's Plan Rejected Again By Bankruptcy Judge
*

*The Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma's plan to convert the Woodland's Race Track, *Wyandotte County, Kansas, into a Las Vegas Style Casino was once again *rejected by the US District Court.

* *The following is transcribed from an article appearing in the KC Star this *morning, Sunday, 5/24/98:

*

*Kansas City, Kansas

*

*Bankruptcy Case:  A U.S. Bankruptcy Court judge has rejected The Woodlands' *request for reconsideration of its plan to emerge from bankruptcy in *partnership with an Indian-operated casino. *

*On Thursday, Judge John T. Flannagan declined to reconsider his ruling of *April 8, when he rejected The Woodlands' plan.  The April ruling moved the *track a step closer to being purchased at auction by its creditors.

*

*With the development Thursday, Woodlands' officials now have the option of *appealing Flannagan's original ruling.  A track official said a decision would *come this week.

*
