gcmera2 said:Hi all,
Can any one tell me what do I put in the number of days in the below section of the first page of summons. I am from Georgia state. Does it matter where I file the case. Please advise. I copied exactly from the summons page below.
"an answer to the complaint which is served on you with this summons, within xxxxxxxxxxxxxx days after service of this summons on you, exclusive of the day of service. If you fail to do so, judgment by default will be taken against you for the relief demanded in the complaint. Any answer that you serve on the parties to this action must be filed with the Clerk of this Court within a reasonable period of time after service."
kabi24 said:HI,
looks like for all our cases, after the first namecheck if it doesn't clear right away or if the case sists in someone's office they just ignore it till you act up on it ....
All that said, in my case i haven't had a 2nd interview, but i had a 2nd FP and 8 weeks later VOILA. the namecheck cleared couple weeks after my FP.
it's all good. the way i see it if you have waited 3 years you only have 3 more months to deal, but at least you know IT IS GOING TO BE DONE.
GOOD LUCK
toolong2 said:Hello all,
I have waited for my oath for 3 years after the 1st interview in 2003 and am still stuck in the name check process, now I was notified by INS to get a 2nd interview and a 2nd fingerprint, do they mean
1. finally INS decided to start processing my case and supposely I'll get the oath real soon (3-4 weeks or so)
or
2. it's just a procedure, for anyone's case longer than 3 years then procedurely the new interview/fp need to be done, i.e. it's like a "refile" of the application and start all over from the begining? which means, it's 50-50 chance, either will get stuck in name check again real long time, or will be on the fast track?
Thank you very much for your help!

She does mention it is normally a good sign. She still remembered that I told her last time that my NC has cleared by another agency other than CIS. She said "it is rediculous" CIS insisted they need to do it again when she called them a few weeks ago. Again, she said she hope to resolve the case before she has to answer to the court.
AL11, how is your case going?
kabi24 said:Hey guys.
First Off thanks to everyone who helped in the creation of this forum and the veterans who assisted me in this lawsuit.
At last it looks like my ordeal will be finaly over on 08/21/06.
Yesterday i was checking my email one more time like i usually do, (i check it like crazy) i was pleasantly surprised that my N-400 application was approved. here's a copy of the email:
T:
Good news -- as you may already know, CIS has scheduled you for an oath ceremony on August 21, 2006. Please see the attached proposed stipulation and order of dismissal which the Court should sign prior to the ceremony in order for CIS to have jurisdiction to swear you in.
If it meets with your approval, I will file it with the court. You can fax me your signature as with the last stipulation we filed.
If you have questions, please feel free to contact me.
P.
is that awesome or what!
she attached a copy of the N-445 Notice of Naturalization Oath Letter, and a proposed stipulation for dismissal that i have agreed with.
here's the copy:

Dear friends,Today I've got an official answer from Attorney, since 60 days on my 1447(b) cas has expired yesterday. I'm shocked, he was so nice at phone and never experess that he was going to file a negative answer!
In the responce there is a list of all my complaint paragraphs with comments on most "deffendants admit plaintiff's allegations contained in Paragraph ...". However, they denied the part of the first paragraph:
The allegations that the defendants hava "failed" to adjudicate her application for naturalization are denied insofar as the adjudication is an ongoing process that cannot be completed until the required background checks are completed.
And finally,
FIRST AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSEThe court should dismiss the complaint under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) because plaintiff fails to state a claim upon relief may be granted.
Needless to say, I've used a template in my complaint following this thred. Moreover, soon after filing I've got ORDER TO SHOW CASE from magistrate judge which confirm the validity of my complaint (I've posted this order while ago).
What should I do? What can I do?
I'm leaving on vacation tomorrow without internet access and have to call attorney upon my return at August 18. The date for case management conference is the end of August.
Emta said:Dear friends,
Here is my update. Just the day after I've recieved this weird answer I've got a call from attorney office that my case is ready and asked to sign stipulation to dismiss "in the light of the fact that USCIS is now prepared to adjudicate plaintiff's application for naturalization and agrees to adjudicate such application within 30 days of dismissal of this action". I was already on my way to vacation when I got this call. I drove back to my office, recieved the fax and signed a dismissal. Hopefully it will work.
Thanks a lot for all the support.
Thank you, you'll be there soon hopefullyAL11 said:Congratulations, enjoy your victory
What i have seen from this thread is that you either get your name check done ASAP or they tell you that you have to wait blah blah blah... so for you i guess it doesn't matter, whatever works. you already have a lawsuit going whichever works the soonest...AL11 said:I received a letter from white house, I send one to Mrs. Bush in May. it is a printed card that says they forworded the letter to the agency responsible and I should hear from them soon. someone else on this forum got similar letter about a month ago, what the experience in general with these kind of letters?

I am not sure the complication you will have between you and the lawers. But for representing yourself instead of the lawer, maybe you can call the clerk for some advice?basia866 said:I do not want a lawyer anymore. I just want to dismiss one I have and take over my case and start negotiation with A USA assigned to my case.
I want to know what kind procedure I have to follow to make sure that my legal paperwork in OK for me to take over. I have learned so much from this web site. I copied all the cases and forms necesary and I am familiar with most of the regulations.
I will share all my information about my lawyer and who I had to deal with when my case comes to some kind of solution.
Anybody who can help what do I have to do to discharge my attorney and become my own representation. Please, please anybody help.
rick2006 said:i used Unlawful delay and negligence in my immigration petition for adjustment of permanent resident status
28 USC 1391. not sure if that is accurate though
basia866 said:I would like to ask for advise. I would like to dismiss my lawyer who has done nothing for me last ten weeks including not initiating the dialog with A USA. He let 60 days pass by two weeks and told me still waiting for an answer. I am sure he did not call anybody or pursue any other motions on my behalf.
I would like to know what do I have to do to to change representation to myself in this case?
What kind of the legal steps do I have to take?
How do I notify A USA office about the change in my representation?
I already know who has been asigned to my case.
I actually found out that she did not even see my complaint yet?
Looking forward to any feedback.
