Redress Provisions for Persons of Japanese Ancestry: Guidelines for Individuals Who Relocated to Japan as Minors During World War II
Traduzione automatica locale · Lingua originale della fonte
Riepilogo
The Department of Justice (``Department'') hereby proposes a change to the regulations governing redress provisions for persons of Japanese ancestry. This change will amend the standards of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 to make eligible for payments of $20,000 those persons who are otherwise eligible for redress under these regulations, but who involuntarily relocated during World War II to a country with which the United States was at war. In practice, this amendment will make potentially eligible those persons who were evacuated, relocated, or interned by the United States Government; who, as minors, relocated to Japan during World War II, and otherwise were unemancipated and lacked the legal capacity to leave the custody and control of their parents (or legal guardians) who chose to relocate to Japan during the war; and who did not enter active military service on behalf of the Japanese Government or another enemy government during the statutorily- defined war period.
