abcnews.go.com

The family of a 2-year-old U.S. citizen deported to Honduras with her mother has dropped its lawsuit against the Trump administration. The family is now considering all available options. The family's attorney stated the dismissal allows time to assess the children's safety and well-being. The child, identified as V.M.L., was deported last month with her mother and sister, who lacked legal status. A judge previously expressed strong suspicion of the deportation, citing a lack of due process. The Department of Justice argued the child was not at risk of harm.
