Los principales hechos de la persecución alegada por el solicitante están lo suficientemente alejados en el tiempo como para concluir que tales hechos no constituyen una persecución que justifique una necesidad actual de protección, sin que del contenido del expediente pueda deducirse que los hechos relatados hayan seguido produciéndose o hayan tenido unas consecuencias tales quepudieran considerarse, en sí mismas y en la actualidad, como persecución, o que pudieran justificar un temor fundado a sufrirla.

"The State Supreme Court upheld the then-current school funding system in 1994, in Unified School District 229 v. State, 885 P.2d 1170. However, in Montoy, the court said that the statutes have since been changed, "this case is sufficiently removed in time from our decision in U.S.D. 229," and "the suitability analysis required by U.S.D. 229 is more rigorous than presumed by the district court.""
