Lozano v. Montoya Alvarez
Supreme Court of the United States
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Thomas
*4 When a parent abducts a child and flees to another country, the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction generally requires that country to return the child immediately if the other parent requests return within one year.
