DOL seems to have stopped progressing on the Audit cases. Can litigation alleviate this problem and force them to atleast respond?
All things considered, in my view, a Mandamus is possible. But the chances of success are remote at least in DC circuit. Typically, in delay cases, courts do not interfere with the executive branch of the govt. At the very least, lawsuits draw attention to difficult issues. I think a petition to the govt. should be the first step. May be the worthy President can help. Although, speedy processing in this environment is certainly not a politically popular issue, but we have all followed the laws and the promise of the laws.
I thought that i might have to go back to India permanently because labor process is taking 12-18 months.Also i filed my greencard after 4 years of my workpermit (H1B).Awesome work by Mr. Khanna, seema & his team .Rajiv Khanna's office handled my case professionally even at this time of recession.
i got prompt responses from seema for all my queries.I want to convey my special thanks to Mr. Khanna and his team.My labor process got approved.
