British priest may not have to leave U.S. But he can’t be a citizen after voting error

From Kansas City-

An Illinois priest facing removal to his native England is changing his earlier plans to leave voluntarily for having mistakenly voted once in a U.S. election.

At a preliminary hearing in Kansas City immigration court Tuesday, the Rev. David Boase and his attorney told a judge via phone that they will seek a cancellation of Boase’s removal. 

If granted, the action would allow Boase to reside permanently in the United States. However, he may never attain citizenship, his lawyer said — a fact that Boase has accepted.

Allowing Boase time to submit the necessary papers, Judge Glen R. Baker scheduled an April 23 teleconference to further discuss the matter.
