Miami, USA — According to a source close to Luckson Saint-Vil, the legal team of Haitian businessman Pierre Réginald Boulos has revealed that their client is seeking to reclaim his U.S. nationality.
Defense Argument
Boulos’s defense argues that when he initially renounced his American citizenship, the decision was never officially published in the Federal Register, the U.S. government’s official journal. For the defense, this means the renunciation was never finalized under U.S. law.
Final Hearing Scheduled
The request to reinstate his American citizenship is now set to be reviewed at a final immigration hearing scheduled for September 22, 2025. On that date, Immigration Judge Jorge Pereira will decide whether to grant Boulos’s request or move forward with a deportation order to Haiti.
A Case of Public Interest
The case has attracted significant attention both in the Haitian diaspora and among political observers in Haiti, as it raises important questions about citizenship rights, legal procedures, and the potential political implications tied to Boulos’s status.
