Reply #1: If she's in the U.S. legally, then there is no legal way to deport her [View All]

[WilmywoodNCparalegal]

The only way to deport a legal alien is if that alien commits crimes of "moral turpitude" (i.e., drugs, prostitution, terrorism, more than 2 felonies, more than 3 misdemeanors - and there are exceptions to all of these).

A hospital is not the U.S. government. The hospital can try to have her deported but ultimately it is up to ICE and if there are no grounds for deportation (see above), then she is going to stay, no matter what the hospital says. In any event, I'm sure a qualified immigration attorney would best serve her.
