El Paso's Tigua tribe and the Texas Attorney General's Office have been locked in a legal tug of war over the state's right to inspect the tribe's entertainment centers. 

The state recently agreed to file an amended complaint against the Tiguas.

At issue is whether the Tiguas can continue to offer bingo games after U.S. District Judge Kathleen Cardone last year ordered the tribe to stop offering electronic sweepstakes games.

Texas' case against the Tiguas was filed in 1999 and technically closed in May. However, the attorney general has argued that the tribe is continuing to violate the law by offering bingo and has asked Cardone to allow its employees to inspect Tigua entertainment centers.
