Description
Gary Harrison pled no contest and was convicted of driving without evidence of automobile registration, in violation of AS 28.10.461, and failure to carry and exhibit a drivers license on demand, in violation of AS 28.15.131. These violations are misdemeanors punishable by a fine of not more than $500 and imprisonment for not more than ninety days. AS 28.40.050. Epperly v. State, 648 P.2d 609 (Alaska App. 1982). Harrison was fined $50 for each of his convictions. By pleading no contest, Harrison reserved the right to appeal the denial of his motion to dismiss. See Oveson v. Anchorage, 574 P.2d 801, 803 n.4 (Alaska 1978); Cooksey v. State, 524 P.2d 1251 (Alaska 1974). Harrison argues that he is immune from prosecution under state vehicle registration and drivers licensing statutes because he is an enrolled member of the Chickaloon village tribe and possesses a valid automobile registration and a valid drivers license issued by the tribe. The state does not contest the fact that Chickaloon village issued a drivers license to Harrison, registered his vehicle, and issued license plates to it. In Harrisons view, the state is obligated to grant reciprocity to tribal drivers licenses and tribal vehicle registrations throughout the state in return for the tribes recognition of state drivers licenses and vehicle registrations in Indian country.
