We were told this morning that court will "begin" on May 16th. I say "begin" because it may last a few days because there are so many people that must testify. Joe and I feel relieved that the date is upon us. However, there is also a guarded feeling that comes with this news. There are so many uncertainties! Inna may not show up - then I assume they would reschedule? Also, even after the hearing, Inna (and her POA) can still appeal the decision one more time. If she (they) want they can appeal all the way to Supreme Court. We were assured that this is unlikely considering she has little to no resources and he is not an attorney. They would have to petition the court in Astana for that appeal.
I just pray this ends very, very soon. I want to be able to go and bring our son home when school is out.

Oh, please keep us posted on any news, and let us know how you are doing...we are thinking of you and praying for you every day. Hopefully, on 5/16, you will have positive news for us to celebrate...Love, Karla
Glad to hear there is finally a date set. I am sure the next week will feel like it is dragging along for you. The three of you will remain in our prayers until Stephen can come home.
At least you now have a date. Prayer - prayer - prayer!!!
We're keeping your situation in prayer. This is good news that court has been scheduled, only a few more days.
You are definitely in the prayers of many that 5/16 will bring good news and answers as to when you can go bring your son home.

Well, at least the date is sooner than you expected. I hope this is the final decision so that you can go on with your lives. I can't imagine what this dragging on is doing to you. Let's hope Stephen comes home this month.
Very glad to hear the set date. It's nice to have something to pray towards.
I'm so glad that you have a date. Hopefully this is the very last court date and things will be settled and you can go get him and bring him home forever.
