Fisch Hochstadt v. United States of Antarctica, et al

The case of Fisch Hochstadt v. United States of Antarctica, et al was a federal court case regarding the unlawful immigration of Fisch Hochstadt into the United States of Antarctica, having recieved a visa that quickly expired. The country of Snowzerland wishes to extradite him and try him for crimes against the government. Melvin Turtleheimer took up the case, thinking that Fisch is seeking asylum from the oppressive Snoss government, and thus should be a refugee.
