A federal judge in California refused on Wednesday to order an overhaul of the Department of Veterans Affairs' health care system, finding that a lawsuit by veterans group was "misdirected." Judge Samuel Conti ruled that veterans should instead ask Congress, the head of Veterans Affairs and the federal court in Washington, D.C., to improve the system. Conti said the veterans groups "did not prove a systemic denial or unreasonable delay in mental health care."
