The US Supreme Court on Thursday ordered the US to facilitate the return of alleged MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
The ruling was unanimous. There was no dissent.
Politico reported:
The Supreme Court is requiring the Trump administration to “facilitate” the return of a Maryland man deported last month to a notorious prison in El Salvador due to what officials described as an “administrative error.”
The justices turned down the administration’s request to set aside a judge’s order that U.S. officials seek Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s release and return to the U.S., after he was flown to El Salvador despite an immigration-court order that he not be sent there due to the threat of persecution by a local gang.
The judge’s order “properly requires the Government to ‘facilitate’ Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador and to ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador,” the Supreme Court ruled Thursday, without any noted dissent.
Last Friday US District Judge of the US District Court for the District of Maryland, Paula Xinis ordered the Trump Administration to return an alleged MS-13 gang member to the United States after he was deported to El Salvador’s notorious CECOT prison.
On Monday Supreme Court Chief Justice Roberts temporarily blocked a court order requiring the return of alleged MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia by midnight on Monday.
President Trump asked the US Supreme Court to intervene and grant an emergency stay of the judge’s order to return alleged MS-13 gang member Abrego Garcia to the United States.
Roberts granted the Trump Administration a stay on Judge Xinis’ order pending resolution.
Lawyers for Abrego Garcia responded to the Supreme Court’s stay and on Thursday, the high court ordered the US to facilitate Garcia’s return.
