Last option i.e The Supreme Court held that the Cherokee could not sue as a foreign nation is the correct answer.
The Supreme Court ruled that the makers of the Constitution consider the Indian Tribes as "domestic dependent nation[s]" and consequently the Cherokee Nation lacked the standing to sue as a "foreign" nation. Chief Justice John Marshall wrote that "the relationship of the tribes to the United States resembles that of a 'ward to its guardian'.
