Sato v. Dulles
District Court, D. Hawaii
1Opinion of the Court
WIIG, District Judge.
By their amended complaint plaintiffs pray for a judgment declaring that they are nationals of the United States, and that they did not lose their United States citizenship by reason of having voted in elections held in Japan. They allege the Court has jurisdiction by virtue of Section 503 of the Nationality Act of 1940, 54 Stat. 1171, 8 U.S.C.A. § 903, and Section 405(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, 66 Stat. 280, note to 8 U.S.C.A. § 1101.
Defendant has moved to dismiss on the ground that the Court lacks jurisdiction of the subject matter.
