AI Abstract

In the 1908 case of Toy Toy v. Hopkins, United States Marshal, Chinese immigrant Toy Toy challenged his deportation order on the grounds that he was a natural-born citizen of the United States and therefore could not be deported under existing immigration laws.

This decision reflected prevailing attitudes towards immigrants from Asia during this period in American history.
