U.S. chief justice alarmed at Trump administration immigration case stance

    April 26, 2017
    By Lawrence Hurley | WASHINGTON

    U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts took issue on Wednesday with the Trump administration's stance in an immigration case, saying it could make it too easy for the government to strip people of citizenship for lying about minor infractions.

    Roberts and other Supreme Court justices indicated support for a deported ethnic Serb immigrant named Divna Maslenjak over her bid to regain her U.S. citizenship after it was stripped because she falsely stated her husband had not served in the Bosnian Serb army in the 1990s after Yugoslavia's collapse.

Either we have laws or we don't!  There is no in between!

Lying on the citizenship application makes the awarding of citizenship mute, meaning she was not stripped of it since she never legally had it.

In this particular case, I don't know if she knew it was false or not. did she meet and marry him after and he lied to her?
