The administration began seeking to arrest the student, Yunseo Chung, this month, according to a lawsuit filed by Ms. Chung’s lawyers.

The judge, Naomi Buchwald, said during a hearing in Manhattan federal court on Tuesday that “nothing in the record” indicated that Ms. Chung posed a danger to the community or a “foreign-policy risk” or had communicated with terrorist organizations.

Ms. Chung is a legal permanent resident. She was not a prominent participant in demonstrations on Columbia’s campus; she was arrested along with several other students this month at a protest at Barnard College, the Manhattan university’s sister school.

A high school valedictorian who moved to the United States from South Korea when she was 7, she has not been detained by federal agents, and her lawyers have declined to comment on her whereabouts.

Ramzi Kassem, a lawyer for Ms. Chung and co-director of CLEAR,fef777 casino a legal clinic at the City University of New York, said at a news conference after the hearing that his client “remained a resident of the Southern District of New York” and that Immigration and Customs Enforcement had not been able to find her. During the hearing, he said that she was “keeping up with her coursework.”

But researchers and federal and state health officials have puzzled over the exact reasons for the decrease, including why overdoses have fallen so much in recent months.
