Dear Mi Mi Sir:
Would you forward this letter to ladnet for me since I have troubls to post it.

Dear Folks:
My wife is a Lad. and her request for in-state residency status was 
denied by the admission  officer and president in a public college.
The reason is that her application of PR is not granted. Now she like
to appeal to State Board of Education which provided the in-state
policy and if denied again we will bring this to the court.

My main argument is following.
In 1978 for the Case Elkins v. Moreno , 435 U.S. 647
The Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the University 's 
in-states policy should apply to those aliens who can seek their
permanent domiciles in the United States , (i.e. who are exempt from
having a foreign permanet residence requirement by the Congress , in this
particular case G-4 visa holders do not have such requirement set by 
Congress ) .

I am not quite clear the difference between ordinary lawsuit and 
class action lawsuit? Any comment on this subject, such as legal
fee, qualified lawyers, which court ( small claim
court ? ), are wellcome.

Thank for your attention.
