AP (Jerusalem) 186/07 – Abu Heikal et al. v. Minister of Interior et al. Petition for Order Nisi
HaMoked's petition on behalf of a Palestinian single mother and her three children seeking the reinstatement of the residency of the Petitioner and two children and the processing of her application for family unification with the third child. The revocation took place in late 1994 in the early days of the "Quiet Deportation" (Israel's mass revocation of the residency of East Jerusalemites) on the grounds that the Petitioner lived abroad for many years. HaMoked claims that the Interior Ministry is ignoring the revocation's timing and the Petitioner's circumstances since she returned to Israel – which demonstrate that she effectively lives in the country and has no ties elsewhere.
