An immigration lawyer for President-elect Obama's aunt says she wants to fight a deportation order and stay in the United States.

The Associated Press found that Zeituni Onyango (zay-TUHN on-YANG-oh) is staying with relatives in Cleveland after fleeing her public housing apartment in Boston. She had been living there for five years.

Onyango, who is Obama's father's half-sister, was ordered to leave the country in 2004 by an immigration judge who rejected her request for asylum from her native Kenya.

Cleveland attorney Margaret Wong told the AP on Friday she is exploring legal options and may file a motion to re-open Onyango's case. She said Onyango is upset because she believes someone leaked information about her immigration status to try to hurt Obama's candidacy.

she violated a deportation order. She violated that order. She should not get any special treatment, and because of the existing deportation order, should be deported. Sorry, rules are rules.
