For those who are interested, there's a blog called "Papers, Please!", run by a group called "The Identity Project", which has been following this trial in some detail:
"The Identity Project explores and defends the fundamental American right to move freely around our country and to live without constantly having to prove who we are or why we are here."
Since the mercurynews article didn't cover it, be sure to read the article where the plaintiff's daughter, a US citizen, was prevented from entering the US to testify at the trial.[1]
