Trump administration seeking to deport 21-year-old Columbia protester and green card holder, lawsuit says

The Trump administration is seeking to arrest and deport a 21-year-old Columbia University student and legal permanent resident who has been involved in pro-Palestinian protests, according to a lawsuit filed Monday in federal court.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials have been looking for Yunseo Chung, who came to the U.S. with her family from South Korea at the age of 7, since earlier this month, including by visiting her parents' residence and telling her lawyer that there's an administrative warrant for her arrest, according to the lawsuit.

ICE issues so-called administrative warrants against noncitizens accused of immigration violations. They are not signed by judges.
