The final incident occurred on April 1. 1992. when four or five men assaulted Mr. Mkoian in his store. He was beaten and hospitalized for 22 days. Following that experience. Mr. Mkoian left Armenia for Russia. and then came to the United States on a visitors visa in search of a better life. Two years later he brought his wife Asmik and his then 3year old son Arthur to the United States. also on visitors visas. The family applied for political asylum. but the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals denied their request in January 2008. Thus. the family has no further legal recourse by which to remain in the country other than this bill.
