the injured party to retain an interest in the claim after one year. B Nearly a year after the statute of limitations had run on the claims, an attorney for the Navajo Nation reassigned the claims to Largo. The district court did not approve of the reassignment. It ruled that section 1032(B) did not authorize reassignment, thereby nullifying the Navajo Nation’s reassignment to Largo. While section 1032(B) does not expressly permit the Navajo Nation to reassign a claim to the injured worker, we believe that sound public policy demands that personal injury suits be brought by the injured parties themselves. This preference is expressed in the general rule that injured parties cannot assign away their personal injury claims. See e.g., Saper v. Delgado, 146 F.2d 714 (2nd Cir. 1945) (<HOLDING>). The stated public policy is in accord with
