A US federal court has refused to block President Trump's revised travel ban.

The court in Seattle has heard an application from US states who want the order suspended.

But Judge James Robart, who suspended the first travel ban, refused to rule on the latest application.

He is looking for more documentation before he makes a decision.

The woman's husband, who's already been granted asylum, was applying for his family to join him in the US.
