A Sovereign Bank line of credit to the leader of the Indian tribe that runs Foxwoods Resort Casino has turned into a $7 million legal dispute that includes counter-charges accusing the lender of bribery and lax account oversight, court papers show. Michael J. Thomas, chairman of the Mashantucket Pequot tribe, says in court papers that the intent behind the Sovereign loan agreement was to bribe him. No other details were provided.
