Important quotations from the Lin 1 lawsuits:


March 18, 2008 District Court Decision
Plaintiffs have essentially been persons without a state for almost 60 years.




April 7, 2009   Court of Appeals Decision
America and China's tumultuous relationship over the past sixty years has trapped the inhabitants of Taiwan in political purgatory. During this time the people on Taiwan have lived without any uniformly recognized government. In practical terms, this means they have uncertain status in the world community which infects the population's day-to-day lives.
