Posted on 

A court hearing has been set for July 12 at 10 a.m. in Washington D.C. The court has combined the hearing on the injunction with a hearing on the merits, meaning, it will make a final decision on the entire case brought by the 36 plaintiffs.  If a decision is negative, the court will not go to the question of the entire class; if positive, the court would then review the question of the entire 22,000. Thank you for your support.
