U.S. Supreme Court: Hannelore Romeike

Hannelore Romeike: Uwe and Hannelore Romeike moved to Tennessee in 2008 after facing escalating fines and threats for refusing to send their children to a state-approved school, as required by German law, according to Times Colonist. The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in May rejected that claim. The court found that U.S. law does not grant asylum to every victim of unfair treatment and NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A couple who fled Germany in order to home-school their children is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to grant them asylum. The Romeikes claim they are being persecuted because they want to raise their children in accordance with their Christian beliefs. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
