CHICAGO -- There is a new legal strategy to keep illegal Mexican immigrant Elvira Arellano and her son from being deported.
Arellano and her 7-year-old son, Saul, sought sanctuary in a West Side church last week to avoid deportation.
A federal lawsuit suit has been filed on behalf of the son who was born in America and is a U.S. citizen. It claims deportation of the mother and son would make Saul a second-class citizen.
