...small overnight protest gathering in Miami's Little Havana seemed to epitomize the fate of the losing side of the Elian Gonzalez case. The demonstrators had gathered outside what had been the home of Lazaro Gonzalez in anticipation of the ruling to be handed down by the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals Thursday, but Mr. Gonzalez - like Elian himself - no longer lives there. The court upheld the Justice Department's decision to send Elian home to his father, dismissing the Miami relatives' claim that the six-year-old is entitled to file an asylum request independently of his father...

...Immigration and Naturalization Service has held that only the boy's father has the legal right to speak for him and that a boy his age cannot be expected to comprehend the meaning of an asylum request. But in a unanimous ruling, the three judges of the Atlanta-based 11th Circuit went out of their way to criticize the INS for not taking into consideration Elian's stated wish to stay in the U.S. The judges noted that when Congress wrote the 1980 immigration law, it specified that "any alien...may apply for asylum." Since Congress did not specifically exclude...
