Eng Wee Lem ex rel. Eng Set Kon v. Dulles

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
Eng Wee Lem ex rel. Eng Set Kon v. Dulles, 266 F.2d 550 (2d Cir. 1959)

Eng Wee Lem ex rel. Eng Set Kon v. Dulles

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Plaintiffs appeal from a judgment dismissing their complaint in an action for a declaratory judgment brought for the purpose of declaring them to be nationals and citizens of the United States. They have alleged that they are the sons of Eng Set Kon, purportedly a United States citizen. The trial court received the testimony of plaintiffs, the alleged father and the alleged mother and concluded that they had testified falsely in many material respects. In addition the court found that the conduct of the alleged father and mother had not been demonstrative of a parental relationship to either plaintiff. The court’s findings and conclusions are amply supported by the evidence.

The judgment is affirmed.
