Summary: written with AI from the case record.

What it's about
The Supreme Court refused to hear her case (denied her petition for review), so it did not decide the question.
The dispute arose after USCIS made a favorable “Bona-Fide Determination” on a U-visa application and involved whether federal law bars courts from reviewing ICE’s actions.
Question presented
Where a U-Visa applicant has been granted a favorable “Bona-Fide Determination” by USCIS, do courts have jurisdiction to review ICE’s subsequent detention and deportation or does 8 U.S.C. § 1252(g) bar judicial review?
