BREAKING: Supreme Court denies emergency request from man with mental disabilities who has been in America for 42 years not to be deported to Haiti, his home country. Justice Sotomayor is the only justice to note her dissent. 
Justice Sotomayor would allow Mr. Francois to remain in the country while he pursues his legal claim.
She argues that Mr. François will suffer irreparable harm if he is returned to Haiti, where he is unlikely to receive the mental health treatment he requires for his safety and well-being.
A reminder that this is an emergency docket case in which justices need not explain or even note their votes. Other justices may have voted to grant a removal stay other than Sotomayor but none joined her written dissent.
