#RosalesvBiden #DV2021 Update: Pursuant to Judge's instruction, our attorneys had meet and confer call today with government where we discussed revised proposed class definition.

The government wanted us to add in a temporal limit on the eligibility for class membership, meaning DV selectees who have not submitted DS-260s by a certain date should be excluded. We found that was reasonable. They also wanted us to change "but have not been issued visas" at the end to "have not been adjudicated," which was an edit we were not comfortable with because it would exclude those who had attended interview already.

Also, the government is still opposing the class certification, which seems dumb on their part, given the court's suggestion and their alternative.

Tomorrow we are filing a joint status report with court to report back on where we are.

Here's email I sent them after the call, where I attached email showing where we tried to get them to give their position on class definition and they refused.
