The US considers Cuba to be a 'special case'. Got to keep those Florida voters onside y'know

Meanwhile, Ana Margarita Martinez obtained a court order Tuesday to seize the aircraft to partially pay a $27.1 million settlement she won against the Cuban government in 2001, according to the Monroe County Sheriff's Office. Deputies were preparing to serve the order Wednesday.

The Miami woman has already received permission to seize the first hijacked plane, as she did a Cuban crop-duster that was flown by defectors to Key West Nov. 11.
