Actually, I understood very well what the document meant - did you read it? It said the child was NOT deported. It had Supreme Court in the header, so I thought it was from SCOTUS - that was my error, it was actually the US government presentation as to why the writ should be denied. So the US government maintains the child was not deported. Nothing misunderstood about that.
