Judge rules Abrego wrongful deportation challenge must proceed

MARYLAND, JUL 7 – U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis denied dismissal, allowing Kilmar Abrego Garcia's suit over wrongful deportation despite a 2019 court order barring it to proceed.

  • A federal judge in Maryland ruled on July 7, 2025, that the lawsuit over Kilmar Abrego Garcia's mistaken deportation must continue despite his return to face charges.
  • This follows the Trump administration returning Abrego Garcia last month due to a Supreme Court order, amid conflicting statements about his potential deportation timeline.
  • Abrego Garcia, who lived in Maryland for over a decade with his American wife and worked in construction, faces federal human smuggling charges from a 2022 Tennessee traffic stop.
  • Attorney Jonathan Guynn revealed that upon Abrego Garcia’s release, officials from Immigration and Customs Enforcement intend to take him into custody and deport him to an unspecified third country other than his homeland of El Salvador.
  • The ruling allows unresolved issues about Abrego Garcia's deportation to be addressed, with his attorneys seeking court orders to prevent his deportation before trial and secure due process.
