WASHINGTON - The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday seemed skeptical of a last-chance appeal by a business owner deported to Mexico trying to return and live with his family in Utah.
Justices peppered the attorney for Humberto Fernandez-Vargas with questions about his case, arguing that a 1996 law should not apply to the Mexican native, who was arrested and deported when he sought a green card after marrying a U.S. citizen. Chief Justice John Roberts said part of the case was a "stretch," and Justice Anthony Kennedy said Fernandez-Vargas' "argument is a difficult one."
