Case Overview

The government appealed Judge Xinis's order which requires the government to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States after he was mistakenly deported to El Salvador.


The Application

History

The Fourth Circuit evaluated the district court's amended return order and rejected the government's arguments that executive authority over deportation decisions precluded judicial enforcement of the return directive.

The Conclusion

The Fourth Circuit affirmed that the judiciary had authority to enforce its orders requiring the government to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return from CECOT prison, rejecting the government's separation-of-powers challenge.
