Rümeysa Öztürk's attorneys and court documents say the immigration court found on Jan. 29 that the Department of Homeland Security hasn’t proved that she should be removed from the U.S and the court terminated her removal proceedings.
A federal judge determined that the Trump administration “had not met its burden of proving” that Rümeysa Öztürk should be removed from the country, though the administration has since indicated it would appeal the ruling.
