Extractions: FAX: 612/339-3161 As members of the Baby Boomer generation head into the homestretch of their careers, employers increasingly are confronting difficult age-related issues in the workplace. Age discrimination has long been illegal at the Federal, State and Local levels. The legal issues have become more complex and occasionally convoluted, as the workforce becomes grayer. The principal law effecting age-based discrimination is the Age Discrimination in Employment Act ("ADEA"), a Federal measure that prohibits discrimination and employment because of age. Minnesota has its own anti-discrimination measure tucked into the state Human Rights Act, a broad-based statute barring discrimination on the basis of age and many other illicit factors. Some local units of government have their own anti-age discrimination measures. For instance, the Minneapolis Civil Rights Act parallels the Federal and Sate laws, forbidding discrimination on the part of employers with sites in the city. While these laws vary slightly, contain different procedures, and offer diverse remedies, they are similar in one major respect: they all prohibit employment-related actions that discriminate on the basis of age. But their proscription on age bias is often easier said than done. Court rulings, interpretation of the laws by administrative agencies, labor union contracts, civil service systems, and other regulatory matters have made the age discrimination laws anything but simple for employers in the Twin Cities, Greater Minnesota, and elsewhere.

Conclusion Everyone Benefits from a Healthy Computer Software Industry With each passing year, evolving software technology brings us faster, more sophisticated, versatile and easy-to-use products. Business software allows companies to save time, effort and money. Educational computer programs teach basic skills and sophisticated subjects. Home software now includes a wide array of programs that enhance the user's productivity and creativity. Computer graphics have turned PCs into a veritable artist's palette; new games are increasingly inventive. The industry is thriving and users stand to benefit along with the publishers. Along the way, however, the problem of software theft has developed, and threatens to impede the development of new software products. Romantically called "piracy," the unauthorized duplication of software is a Federal offense that affects everyone: large and small software publishers and legitimate users. Even the users of unlawful copies suffer from their own illegal actions. They receive no documentation, no customer support and no information about product updates.

International Adoptions Once a legal permanent resident naturalizes as a United States We understand thislaw is very difficult for many As with any issues related to US law, specific http://madras.sphynx.com/wwwhadoption.html
Extractions: The immigration to the U.S. of adopted children is a complicated procedure with many restrictions. There are preliminary requirements that must be met before filing an immigrant visa petition. The Department of State reports cases each year of non-citizen parents who have legally adopted a child internationally and then find that the child cannot join them in the United States. Within the past few months, the Consulate in Chennai has had to refuse a number of visas for children legally adopted in the Indian courts who were not eligible under US law to travel to the US. Therefore, we thought it important to publish a letter clarifying US visa law as it relates to adoptions. The following example illustrates the problem: An Indian national in the US on a H1-B Temporary Worker visa adopts a baby girl from India. The child has not lived with the adopting parent for two years. She does not meet the definition of "child" under US law. The US consulate cannot issue her an H-4 visa (dependent of temporary worker) to join her parent. If the worker leaves the US and lives with his adopted daughter for two years, she can then receive an H-4 visa if he qualifies for later work in the US.

Legal Education The NAD Law Center has protected the legal rights of deaf and hard of hearing people through the courts since 1976. Law Center attorneys also work closely with deaf and hard of hearing individuals, parents, lawyers, employers and service providers to ensure broad national compliance with federal and state non-discrimination laws and other laws that have a direct impact on the deaf community. The goal of the NAD Law Center is to assure that deaf and hard of hearing individuals receive equal opportunity under the law. New laws provide important civil rights to effective communication. The NAD Law Center has expertise in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), the Fair Housing Act, and other important civil rights laws. In spite of these laws, deaf people experience discrimination on the basis of deafness, sometimes in life-threatening situations such as hospital emergency rooms and police stations, sometimes on an everyday, continuing basis in classrooms and on the job. The Law Center combats such discrimination by vigorously enforcing federal and state laws and by seeking to establish powerful legal principles of equality and access. The NAD Law Center is also a national resource of expertise and information on law and deafness. Deaf individuals who know the law and how to enforce it can be effective self-advocates. They also know when to bring in the specialized expertise of lawyers.
