flag A Vermont judge halted the Trump administration’s push to deport Palestinian grad student Mohsen Mahdawi over a procedural flaw in key paperwork.

flag An immigration judge in Vermont has blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to deport Mohsen Mahdawi, a Palestinian graduate student and former Columbia University protest leader, ruling that government attorneys failed to properly certify a key document. flag The judge, Nina Froes, terminated the case due to a procedural error, deeming the evidence inadmissible. flag Mahdawi, a legal permanent resident born in a West Bank refugee camp, was arrested in April 2025 during a citizenship interview but released weeks later by a federal judge. flag The decision marks another legal setback for the government’s broader effort to deport pro-Palestinian campus activists, following a similar ruling last month involving a Tufts University student. flag The Department of Homeland Security maintains Mahdawi led “pro-terrorist riots” and plans to appeal.
