ACOSTA, Magistrate Judge:

obtain a declaration that he is a United States citizen. Lopez's action was tried to the court
without a jury. Following trial, the court determined that Lopez is a United States citizen
because he was born in the United States, specifically, in Bingen, Washington, on April 28,
1978; that as a U.S. citizen he is entitled to a United States passport; and that the Department
must issue to Lopez a United States passport.
Accordingly,
