Plaintiff Jamshid S. Kashannejad has asked the Court to revise its order of January 23, 2012,

17

such that the transportation letter that will enable his return to the United States will be valid for 60

18

days rather than 30. Having considered the parties’ briefs and accompanying submissions, the Court

19

hereby DENIES the request for relief.

20

As a preliminary matter, Mr. Kashannejad’s request is based on evidence to which the Court

21

gives little weight. The “certification” is not signed but rather is simply stamped. Furthermore, the

22

certification is not signed under the penalty of perjury.

23

Even if the Court were to overlook these problems, the fact remains that the certification

24

simply represents the experience of one company. In addition, the general manager of the company

25

simply states in vague terms that, “due to the economic issues, holidays, and other concerns

26

obtaining UAE visa, has become more burden some and time consuming than before.” The general

27

manager does not state what those economic issues, holidays, or other concerns are; nor does he

28

provide any specifics as to what the burden and/or timing issues are.

1

Finally, Mr. Kashannajed fails to take into account that, regardless of any troubles with

2

obtaining a UAE visa, Defendants have offered to make a transportation letter available to him at the

3

U.S. Consulate in Istanbul, Turkey.

4

Accordingly, Mr. Kashannejad’s request for relief is denied.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
