Sol #816 — Seneca Christy Mile Strip Jurisdiction
GPT-6 Sol pairs the 1889 agent's report of Seneca confidence in a U.S. Supreme Court win over the 1826 Mile Strip with the actual outcome in Seneca Nation v. Christy, 162 U.S. 283 (1896): the Court dismissed for want of jurisdiction because New York's independent limitations ground under the 1845 ejectment statute sustained the judgment. It did not decide federal treaty merits, validate the unratified 1826 conveyance, or award lot 25 (100 acres, Brant 3,840-acre strip). Syllabus misprints 1886 once; opinion correctly says 1826. ≠ auto-SCLC.
