Federal judges in 2 states are considering challenges to the government’s treatment of Abrego Garcia
Judges review legal challenges over deportation efforts to Eswatini after a prior order blocked removal to El Salvador amid claims of retaliation by immigration officials.
- On Friday, federal judges in two states will consider legal challenges to the government's treatment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, while U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis ordered the Justice Department to provide a witness on plans to remove him to Eswatini.
- Earlier this year, Kilmar Abrego Garcia was mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador and returned to the U.S. after a 2019 immigration judge barred his removal.
- His attorneys argue the Republican administration is punishing Abrego Garcia through immigration, and Friday's hearing will decide what discovery can prove a retaliation case.
- Justice Department attorneys told U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis that the government shutdown limits details on Abrego Garcia's deportation, but Xinis denied pausing the case and demanded testimony on steps toward deporting him to Eswatini or Costa Rica.
- The case has become a symbol as Kilmar Abrego Garcia's lawyers moved to free him citing a 2001 Supreme Court decision after he spent over a decade in Maryland and was transferred to a Pennsylvania facility last month.
