An international student in South Dakota, who earned two degrees amid her fight against the Trump administration’s attempt to deport her, has been granted injunction.

Just over a month ago, Saxena had been notified that her visa and status in the country had been revoked.

Saxena, who sued the Trump administration, was granted a temporary restraining order until the end of this week, allowing her to collect her degrees.

And on Thursday morning, she was granted a preliminary injunction that keeps the government from attempting to detain or deport her.

“The rule of law saved an innocent person from unlawful action by this administration,” Leach said.

Saxena had been in the country on a student visa that wasn’t set to expire until 2027.

The process, overseen by DHS acting executive director Robert Hammer, populated 6,400 hits, Andre Watson, assistant director of DHS said. »
