In this Wednesday, July 19, 2017 photo, attorney Glenn Formica speaks at a press conference New Haven, Conn., for Nury Chavarria, left, a housekeeper and mother of four who was scheduled to be deported the following day. U.S. immigration officials said Friday, July 21, 2017, they consider Chavarria, who is trying to avoid deportation by seeking sanctuary in a Connecticut church, to be a fugitive, but acknowledge they have a policy that restricts them from entering a house of worship except in extraordinary circumstances.(Catherine Avalone/New Haven Register via AP)
