consideration in light of the brief filed by the acting
solicitor general for the United States on August 27, 2021.
Issue: Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit erred in holding that petitioner did not derive citizenship through his father under former 8 U.S.C. § 1432(a) because his father naturalized before, rather than after, allegedly separating from his mother.
