  Taveras v. Taveraz,
  477 F.3d 767 (6th Cir. 2007)    Brief Case History

  March v. Levine,
  249 F.3d 462 (6th Cir. 2001)    The father, an Italian citizen,   and  the mother,  a
                                      U.S.  citizen, met at the University of Illinois and
  Sinclairv. Sinclair,            married in 2011. The couple moved to Italy in
  121 F.3d 709 (6th Cir. 1997)    2013 to continue with their careers. In 2015, the
