If my mom is being deported for a crime, are there steps I can take to bring her back?

It appears as if your mother was convicted of attempted manufacturing of a controlled substance. If that is correct and she is being deported as an aggravated felon, as defined by immigration laws, she will be banned for life from returning to the United States.
