Legal challenge can't close OHA, DHHL, judge says


The Advertiser reports that "A federal judge yesterday substantially pared down a court challenge to the legality of using state taxpayers' money to support two state agencies that offer programs that require participants to be of Hawaiian ancestry."

The Star-Bulletin reports that "The Office of Hawaiian Affairs is the remaining defendant in the federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of programs that benefit Hawaiians.In a 32-page ruling issued late yesterday, U.S. District Judge Susan Mollway followed her earlier announced inclinations and dismissed the other defendants -- the state Department of Hawaiian Home Lands/ Hawaiian Homes Commission and the federal government."

There's two letters related to the issue in the Star-Bulletin, and two more letters in the Advertiser.
