Court Date
We have a court date…May 27th…the problem is that our visas expire on May 25th and we have to be out of Kaz no later than the 25th. SERIOUSLY!?!?!? How does this stuff constantly happen to us?
Our team here is doing everything that they can for us and the judge has told our lawyer that her hands are tied, the 26th is the best that she can do. So, our lawyer is going to try to meet with the Chairman of the Court (head of all judges) later this week to try to get our date moved up. The soonest she was able to setup a confirmed meeting was for Wednesday, but she is going to go to his office on Monday to see if she can get anywhere. She is going to bring the Chairman a gift from us that will hopefully help…
Cross your fingers for us!
If they are unable to change the date, then we have no choice but to go back home. (We can not extend our current visas for any longer.) Once home, we will be able to re-apply for a new visa. Once we are approved for that, we would need to come back for our court meeting in early June. (No later than June 5th, because starting the 6th, our judge will be on summer vacation!)
CRAZINESS!!!!
Trying to wait patiently,
Cortney & Dustin

That's crazy. I hope they can work this out for you. Its frustrated because they don't understand all the expense and time for you to go home and come back!! Praying for them to move up the court date!!!
Don't take it personally. It is not about "you". The judges are under orders to stop international adoption and make it as difficult as possible so other families won't want to adopt from there. They don't care about your time, money, jobs, lives. This is a matter of national pride. You may feel better about your situation after checking out this blog http://bjadoption.wordpress.com/ (They are using the completely incompetent Pearl Buck's Welcome House. Be sure to read from the beginning of their adoption nightmare.)
