Abstract | Examines how Vietnamese refugees use the American legal system to address grievances arising during resettlement and how resettlement affects the pace of their legal adaptation. Data from state and federal civil cases involving Vietnamese litigants indicate that several aspects of Vietnamese litigation match their resettlement process, such as civil rights and intraethnic litigation occurring later than other types of cases.
