Federal judge's order for Trump to return deported migrant temporarily halted on appeal
- U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallagher ordered the Trump administration to return Daniel Lozano-Camargo to the United States in April 2025 after his deportation to El Salvador.
- Gallagher ruled the deportation breached a 2024 agreement involving Lozano-Camargo and other young asylum seekers who entered the U.S. As unaccompanied minors.
- Gallagher emphasized her decision concerns due process violations rather than the merits of Lozano-Camargo’s asylum claim and demanded the administration act in good faith.
- An appellate court in the Fourth Circuit has put the order on hold while the case is under review, with the Justice Department contending that Lozano-Camargo is subject to removal due to a recent drug conviction and alleged involvement with a violent gang.
- This case highlights procedural challenges in asylum enforcement and may influence how courts handle deportations tied to due process safeguards for asylum seekers.
