Italian artist wins reprieve from deportation in Dallas
Italian portrait artist Manlio Ciani celebrated a federal judge's order blocking deportation. Judge William H. Atwell halted Immigration and Naturalization Service efforts after Ciani argued his visa status as the husband of an American citizen. Deportation moves dated back to 1963 following a 1953 annulment of his marriage to Virginia Kieth. Ciani held a tourist visa and later obtained permanent residency in 1951. The ruling marks a rare legal reversal amid a lengthy immigration fight.
