The family of 24-year-old Hoda Muthana filed suit last week against the Trump administration after the government said she wasn’t a citizen and wouldn’t be allowed to enter the US with her 18-month-old son. Her family sought expedited action on her suit because Muthana is now in a refugee camp in Syria. Judge Reggie Walton granted that Tuesday and scheduled a hearing for Monday. The US determined Muthana wasn’t a citizen because her father was a Yemeni diplomat when she was born in New Jersey. But her lawyers say he was no longer a diplomat at the time.
