"Mr Culleton, from Glenmore, Co Kilkenny, entered America on a tourism visa in 2009 but remained there past the permitted 90 days. He had been living in Boston for nearly 17 years."
"A court in the United States has issued a further order preventing the deportation of Irishman Séamus Culleton - but has denied his request to be released from a detention facility."
Séamus Culleton, an Irish national from Glenmore, County Kilkenny, entered the United States on a tourism visa in 2009 but remained beyond the permitted 90-day period. He established a life in Boston over nearly 17 years. A U.S. court has issued an order preventing his deportation, providing temporary legal protection from removal. However, the court simultaneously denied his request for release from detention, meaning he remains in custody despite the deportation block. This decision leaves Culleton in a complex legal situation where he is protected from removal but continues to be held in a detention facility.
