SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Federal officials say the government is reversing the termination of legal status for international students after many filed court challenges around the U.S. That word came Friday. Judges around the country had already issued temporary orders restoring the students’ records in a federal database of international students maintained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE. The records had been suddenly terminated in recent weeks, often without the students or their schools being notified. A lawyer for the government read a statement in federal court in California that said ICE was restoring the student status for people whose records were terminated in recent weeks.
