GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORY<br />

Appendix 10: Life Continues<br />

On the day of my release (Sunday, 5 July 2009) a friend of mine<br />

awaited me at the prison gate. He took me to his home in his car, where<br />

we and his wife had a delicious breakfast. After this I went to Cologne<br />

by train, where I met my wife, with whom I had lunch in a restaurant<br />

next to the cathedral. From there we went to my parents’ home, where<br />

we (including our four year old daughter) stayed until the end of August.<br />

During this time my U.S. lawyer informed me that the prohibition<br />

of returning to the U.S. which had been imposed on me in November<br />

2005 was still in effect. Hence a return back to the States before November<br />

2010 wasn’t likely, although we applied to have that ban lifted<br />

early.<br />

After my wife and daughter had returned to our home in the U.S. in<br />

early August 2009, I immediately initiated “Plan B”: I moved to Eastbourne<br />

a few days later, which is a town in the southeast of England<br />

where I had previosuly lived between 1996 and 1999. In early September<br />

my older daughter from my first marriage (then almost 15 years of<br />

age) joined me there, as she was to spend an entire school year in England.<br />

In late October 2009 my wife and younger daughter joined us<br />

there. After some initial difficulties, which had to be expected, our family<br />

life became quite normal within a few months. My two daughters<br />

were quickly competing for their father’s attention, although just a short<br />

while ago both had hardly known me.<br />

In early April 2010 my wife and younger daughter returned to the<br />

States. My older daughter passed her British school exams in June<br />

2010, and together with my son we spent a three-week language vacation<br />

in France in August of that year. After that I left England and traveled<br />

temporarily to Mexico, hoping that my application for permanent<br />

residence in the U.S. (“green card”) would be granted after the expiration<br />

of my ban. But that wasn’t supposed to happen quite yet…<br />

Starting in November of 2010, the U.S. authorities put me off from<br />

week to week, until at the turn of the year 2010/2011 they apprised me<br />

that they could not foresee if and when my immigration case would be<br />

decided. In February 2011 we therefore filed a so-called writ of mandamus<br />

against the U.S. government in an attempt to force a decision,<br />

and this was indeed of avail: after some legal back and forth I did re-<br />
