Federal immigration judge ruled Mahmoud Khalil's deportation due to undisclosed information on his green card application amid a broader policy targeting pro-Palestinian activism, with a 30-day appeal window.
- An immigration judge ordered Mahmoud Khalil to be deported to Algeria or Syria due to alleged omissions in his green card application, citing 'willful misrepresentation' as per Judge Jamee Comans' ruling on September 12, 2025.
- Khalil, a Columbia University student and permanent U.S. resident of Palestinian descent, was detained for over 100 days prior to his deportation order, during which he missed the birth of his child.
- Khalil's lawyers plan to appeal the decision, arguing that the deportation attempts are politically motivated and threaten his civil rights amid claims of procedural irregularities during the ruling process.
