Man with work permit wrongly deported to El Salvador, US judge orders his return
A US judge ruled on Friday that the Trump administration must return a Maryland man who was wrongly deported to El Salvador back to the United States within three days, the latest legal setback for the administration's hardline deportation policies. "They put him there, they can bring him back,” Andrew Rossman, lawyer at prominent law firm Quinn Emanuel that joined Abrego Garcia’s legal team on Friday, said in a statement. After questioning government lawyers, US District Judge Paula Xinis ruled at a Greenbelt, Maryland, court hearing that the government must take steps to bring him back to the United States by April 7. The United States said Abrego Garcia "has no legal right or basis to be in the United States at all" and that "the public interest obviously disfavours his return, let alone a slapdash one conducted as the result of judicial fiat."
