An appeal the Blood Tribal Council for a stay of proceedings on four charges of contempt of court has been denied the Federal Court in Calgary.

The charges rise from the ongoing dispute on the reserve between Chief Harley Frank and the tribal council. The council was charged after blocking Frank's attempts to conduct band business, and for the illegal election of former chief Roy Fox.

Frank was illegally ousted the council this spring. Peter Levesque, lawyer for Chief Frank, said the case will be heard on Nov. 4.

The newly-elected president of the Metis Nation of Alberta Society might be

on shaky ground following allegations of voting irregularities during his election.

The results that gave Gerald Thom presidency are being challenged four members of the Metis Nation who ran against him in the September vote. Several zone vice-presidents are also having their election deferred for a decision with the Metis Nation's senate.

Thom became interim president after the death of Larry Desmeules this spring.
