FILE - This Jan. 16, 2009 file photo shows former University of South Florida professor Sami Al-Arian outside federal court in Alexandria, Va. For more than five years, a federal judge upset with the continued prosecution of a Florida professor once accused as a leading terrorist has simply refused to rule on his case.That has left the government unable to deport him, unable to prosecute him and flummoxed on how to move forward. In April 2009, U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema told lawyers she would rule “soon” on whether to dismiss a criminal contempt case against Sami Al-Arian, a longtime Palestinian activist. Since then, nothing has happened. (AP Photo/Kevin Wolf, File)
