The Supreme Court left in place a deportation order against an illegal alien from Mexico who was convicted of fraudulently using a Social Security card to gain employment, because he failed to establish he was entitled to relief from removal.

The 5–3 ruling in Pereida v. Wilkinson on March 4 was a win for the former Trump administration, which had argued last year in favor of affirming the removal order.
