[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a horrific story. I adopted internationally many years ago. Every potential adoptive parent is told by the State Department that you cannot adopt a child from a Muslim country. How did he get a visa or Afghan passport with his last name? Hague convention o adoption which stopped most International adoptions also forbids them s. Somebody’s ready needs to get this case quickly into federal court. If anyone knows who is representing Afghans please le me know. There are many people who could help pro bono[/quote] They’re being represented by really good lawyers in DC and NYC offices of McGuire Woods which gives me hope. it appears it’s all hands on deck. The Masts are being represented by Hunton. The Mast brother is representing himself and Kimberly Motley is being represented by Alston & Bird. McGuire and Hunton are both originally big Richmond powerhouse firms which would make sense since this is being played out in both the state courts in Palymra/Fluvanna family & juvenile court as well as the federal court eastern district of Virginia in Charlottesville. You want someone with Virginia ties representing you. It may come down to state law. I really want the Afghans to get their child back ASAP[/quote]
