The Illinois Court of Ap- .peals ruled on Dec. 30 that a lower state court acted im- properly when it placed Wal- ter in state custody after the ‘Parents, Michael and Anna ‘Polovchak, left the United States. Lawyers for Walter, who says he wants to become a U.S. citizen, say the appellate ruling left him in jeopardy of * being “taken by Soviet rep- Fesentatives...and returned ° to the Soviet Union.” The Justice Department order means that Walter, living with court-appointed Ukrainian foster parents in Chicago, can remain in the.
