I do happen to have a collection of cases that went to the Supreme Court concerning issues of Homosexuality. I have found only two cases dealing with this subject of deportation on the grounds of being a Homosexual "psychopathic personality." Both of these cases deal with the Immigration and Nationality act of 1952, which I am sure has to have been updated by then. I suggest going to your local library (law) to find the updated copy and then judge if your friend is in trouble of being deported. Let me know if you have trouble finding it, and I'll locate it here at Purdue. I also suggested calling your local Immigration Office for specific case information. I would like to stress that the information included may in fact be outdated. In additon, if there is an interest, I can type in summaries of other cases that have gone through Federal Courts in regards to the subject of Homosexuality. From U.S. Supreme Court Reports: Clive Michael Boutilier, Petitioner v Immigration and Naturalization Service 387 US 118, 18 L ed 2d 661, 87 S ct 1563 Argued March 14, 1967. Decided May 22, 1967. SUMMARY The practitioner, an alien who had homosexual relations about three or four times a year for over 5 years immediately preceding his entry into the United States, was ordered deported on the ground that he was, at the time of entry, an alien "afflicted with psychopathic personality" and therefore "excludable from admission into the United States" under 212(a) (4) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952. [......some stuff not typed in......] In an opinion by Clark, J., expressing the views of six members of the court, it was held that the phrase "psychopathic personality" was not used in a clinical sense, but was intended to exclude all homosexuals from admission into the United States. [The Court affirmed the Deportation] [.....] The Legislative history of the act [1952] indicates beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Congress intended the phrase "psychopathic personality" to include homosexuals such as [the] petitioner. Legislative Progression: S Rep No. 1515, 81st Cong, 2d Sess, P.345 S 2550 in the 82nd Congress S Rep No. 1137, 82d Cong, 2d Sess, p. 9 HR Rep No. 1365, 82d Cong, 2d Sess The other case can be found at [10 ed 2d 1000] which dealt with more of what "entry" into the United States actually means (re-entry) after a individual had left the country for a short period of time. I hope the inofrmation helps you answer your question of concern. -Richard.
