Summary	While most of the country has become used to lawsuits challenging hirings on the basis of race and religion, Ann Azdell is the lead plaintiff in a different kind of discrimination case. She, and 1,250 other aspiring administrative law judges, are challenging the way in which the government applies its veterans preference policy. They argue the government unreasonably gave veterans the chance to be administrative law judges before them, even though they were more qualified for the position.
