The United States Supreme Court on Thursday offered new hope to thousands of long-term immigrants seeking to avoid deportation in a ruling that faulted the US government for improperly notifying a man who had come illegally from Guatemala to appear for a removal hearing.In a 6-3 decision that divided the high court’s conservative bloc, the justices overturned a lower court’s decision that had prevented Agusto Niz-Chavez from pursuing his request to cancel the attempted expulsion based on the length of time he has lived in the United States.Niz-Chavez lives in Michigan with his family after entering the US irregularly in 2005.
