MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE!
Eleventh Circuit Lacks Courage To Review Its Prior Decision
UNFORTUNATELY, GONZALEZ FAMILY LAWYERS HAD NOT PRESENTED KEY
DOCUMENTS TO THE COURT
(Washington, DC) Today the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh
Circuit refused to review its prior petition upholding Attorney
General Janet Reno's decision not to provide an asylum hearing to
Elian Gonzalez. A lawsuit by Judicial Watch recently uncovered
INS documents showing that the Clinton-Gore Administration and
Castro had predetermined Elian's fate without regard for the rule
of law.
These documents had been provided to the lawyers of the Gonzalez
family before their latest brief was filed with the appeals
court. Inexplicably, little of the documentation was mentioned,
much less used as evidence for the record. As a result, Judicial
Watch attempted an emergency effort to submit the documents to
the appeals court through an amicus curiae, or friend of the
court, brief. Apparently, these documents were not considered by
the appeals court -- perhaps because they were not substantially
provided by the lawyers for the Gonzalez family themselves -- who
had legal standing to do so.
"Judicial Watch will continue to be supportive of the lawyers for
the Gonzalez family with regard to their "hoped-for" appeal to
the U.S. Supreme Court. However, this time the public-interest
watchdog hopes that they will use all available means to win the
case, and save little Elian from a future of despair in Cuba's
Communist cesspool," stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General
Counsel Larry Klayman.
"Today was truly a dark day in American legal history, since it
appears that the court followed the polls, not the law," added
Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.
