The federal courthouse in Johnstown will be the site of a deportation hearing. Earlier this week, an unidentified Venezuelan man, reportedly filed an emergency petition to stop from being deported. Judge Stephanie Haines then issued a temporary injunction to keep the Trump Administration from removing the man. Reportedly, the man arrived in Texas with his wife two years ago, but later moved to Philadelphia. Court documents show he was asked to attend an immigration meeting with his wife, but he was arrested at that time and sent to an ICE Detention Center in Moshannon Valley. The U.S. Government is claiming the man is a gang member, however the attorney for the Venezuelan man reportedly says that’s not true. The hearing is scheduled for next week.
