Congress will not cancel Diversity Visa Program even if they wont be this year, not next year and certainly not the next three years. Why? LAWS are passed in the U.S by Bicameralism and presentment. With both houses sharply divided on the issue of immigration it will be very hard to satisfy the "bicameralsim" and even if the bill is able to pass at congress with the President in support of immigration, he can use his VETO POWERS. In class action law suit you dont need all the members. Even one member is okay to suit for a class action. The person just have to show that he can represent the passive class members interest and there is a common question of law and facts.

Frankly, we will all lose if an injunction is placed on the Dv which is most likely to be. Bceause then, we spend another months waiting in anxiety to find out if we were selected or not. What all those who were not selected going to lose if the 22K winners are reinstated--NOTHING. They may say it was not fair to them but really thats why the Dos is still redrawing to satisfy those who did not win.

I will admonish all of us, instead of wishing the downfall of the 22k winners, we should rather wish that everyone's interest is protected. My family did not win so I am hoping a new draw will be done in July. Thats why I want Dos and the 22k winners to settle this case quickly for all of us to move from this problem.
 
Ovicity and Jayo2k,One thing i want u guys to know is that since the results is been onhold i strongly believe that GOD is on our side.The ex-22k will be happy by now cos it might be what they want indirectly.I know for that the case can never be ruled in the favor of the ex-22k.Mr white can only succeed in makin the results to be onhold in court thru the judge but cannot and not win the case.He cannot win the US Government in court because DOS also have there own rules and laws governorin DV programs after all the lottery is a free thing and nobody was ask to pay anythin.
 
@Arekee, for the records, Mr White is doing this PRO-BONO. I you don't know what that means please look it up in the dictionary or google it. No offence!

Ovicity Mr white could just be lookin for a way to make money and he has this opporturnity thru the ex-22k.But i still believe the ex-22k still have a chance to be reselected again even though the random redraw had been done.

Y wont he do it PRO-BONO. Cant u see, he is making himself popular and so many ilegal and legal immigrants will now run to him for help. This will increase his ego and of course more $.

I agree. Any intelligent person can see Mr. White's true motives. He wants to get his name out there to boost business for hisself. Wow!, those people have so much faith in this man. I guess it is out of desparation and thier only hope.

I hope that this situation ends fairly, that's all!

The result on hold? Where did you get ur info. from? DOS website still says July 15, and the lawsuit has not even been approved yet as a class action lawsuit yet! You know these class-action lawsuit takes 2-4 years to be concluded? How can they hold the results till then? Unless they just have to cancel everything about DV2012!
 
I was an ex winner.. why in hell would i want the whole thing being voided?
Jayo2k and win _dv what do u guys think about the whole issue now on ground?Because i always know that the ex-22k at this point in time wants the whole thing to be voided.
 
true talk... if the lawsuit is passed, then it's best for the non selectees to have the former selectees to regain the chance for the visa to end the whole thing & precess as normal... what if thoses 36 plaintif do not win on july 15... they won't shut up thus screwing the whole DV 2012... imagine that senario :
most of the 36 plaintif do not win thus getting madder & going harsh on DOS, making a judge to put a hold on the interview process... the ones who were selected on july 15 would regret that dos didn't gave the first 22k a chance... True that before the lawsuit, they wished none of the 22k get a process but now, their best interest (if the lawsuit is passed) is to let the 22k pass too

This is just to let you know wat people can do to be famous. U think this socalled Mr. White is truelly interested in this winners, he is doing it for himself. Do nu know the number of immigrant layers they hav in US without jobs? This man is very selfish and selfcentered. Well, not to worry guyz, the result will definately be released by July 15, whether Mr. White likes it or not. He cannot change the decision of the DOS simply because of some 36 funny US citizens.
 
at this time i just want the whole thing to end... nothing is sure now, so do not be so sure about july 15... anything could happen

Arekee, I am NOT an ex-winner and happy I am not. What an emotional roller coaster this has caused for them!!!! This is unfair from a human standpoint.

I second this-win or lose, I just want to put this behind me. July 15 re-draw is not guaranteed at this point. sucks!!
 
No one knows 2mmorow!!

@ Win DV; Cool the temper, believe in ur dreams & always expect positive side of things!!!

To all we DV 2012 100,000 hopeful, lets all seek fortuity in God!!!
 
Gosay u said that Mr white is doin a PRO BONO right?but do u really think Mr white is doin this so called PRO BONO for free?Gosay think as a man u really think so.But if u ask me i think he is tryin to get himself porpular or advertisin his proffession.Or perhaps Gosay with the u thread here u sound like one of the ex-22k.There is hope 4 every qualified entry to be reselected again instead the so called lawsuit.There is no way the ex-22k would get there GC thru lawsuit.A question 4 The ex-22k re they sayin that even if DOS Reinstate them as some winners in DV2012 and they gets deny of visa durin the interviews would they sue the embassy 4 not givin them visa?

The point is that we have a divided house. Everyone, including the DV2012 22,000 knows the real fact & truth. But all is trying to protect his or her own interest. Am on the side of the DOS cos i was not favoured as an initial winner. Initial winner will be on Mr. White side. So this will result to a blind argument.

So saying things according to our diversify views wont influence/change DOS decision. July 15th is d right solution.

Gosay u said that Mr white is doin a PRO BONO right?but do u really think Mr white is doin this so called PRO BONO for free?
Although I'm having hard time deciphering your English, I must note that he has legal agreements with at least some people named as plaintiffs, so he's getting his cut anyways, regardless of donations.
 
just saw the definition... so now my question... why the donation is for if it is a pro bono?

meaning : Pro bono is kind of benevola... you do it for free... so why the donation?
Jayo2k thank u 4 askin that question?But that question should go to Gosay,to ask him the meanin of PRO BONO?
