More details to this question:
My wife was arrested by ICE at our immigration I-130 meeting yesterday. They were stating that she had a voluntary removal order in 2006. She didn't leave. We met in '08 married in '09 and now have two children. What can I do to stop them from deporting her? The attorney we are using said that wouldn't happen and to ask for an order of supervision. The ICE supervisor was denied. Now what? She is in jail and I have to figure how to raise my children by my self.

Your attorney should have checked if there were any outstanding deportation orders before filing your application. At this point, you should seek to reopen her order.

Failure to comply with any immigration order is serious. I would recommend you seek counsel you have confidence in to review what has happened and the facts surrounding why she didn't leave in 2006 and her eligibility for any relief currently.

Your wife had an outstanding removal order. She needs probably a motion to reopen her case if possible. That is the only way to get her out.
