When the illegals show up at a border hospital there is no law preventing the State from telling the hospital to stabilize her and then hauling her ass back across the border, but that would been deemed Heartless by the perrywinkles.

Court Treatment of Medical Repatriations: Montejo v. Martin Memorial and State Court Jurisdiction

The Florida Court of Appeals ruled on the legality of the lower court‘s order despite the fact that Mr. Jimenez was no longer in the United States.77 The appellate court dismissed the hospital‘s assertion of mootness because the matter was deemed an important issue that was likely to recur.78 Fur-ther, the court emphasized that the mootness argument, which focused on Mr. Jimenez‘s immigration status, only highlighted the legal precariousness of the repatriation.79 Deportations, the appellate court stated, are the realm of the federal government and not a matter within the discretion of state courts.80
