There was a couple who traveled with us for whom the district attorney in the area filed an appeal on day 15 (actually the jerk put it in the mail so the judge would receive it at 5pm on day 15). They were still in the country and our agency worked very hard for them and they talked with an in country lawyer, etc.

I would really press your agency to find out exactly what is going on. Is there a specific issue or is this person like the district attorney above who was very opposed to international adoption. The adoptions in our region (kostanai and rudney) are currently being very scrutinized and maybe it's spreading. In fact, we received a letter asking us to come back (after we've been home for 3 months) to go to court for reasons I won't go into. Bottom line is we aren't going back as our kids are U.S. citizens and they are ours now, but my point is that every case is being closely evaluated. ASK ASK ASK questions to your agency. I will be thinking of you as I know this has to be so hard.
