State Sides with Immigrant for Child Custody

In Missouri, the state supreme court has reportedly sided with an immigrant in relation to a child custody matter. The ruling was that the state failed to follow its laws in terminating the immigrants parental rights and allowing her son to be adopted by someone else. However, the child will not automatically be returned to the Guatemalan immigrant. A new trial will reportedly be held in order to determine if she should maintain her parental rights.
