US EditionUS judge orders deported migrant Abrego released ahead of trial
UNITED STATES, JUL 23 – Two federal judges blocked Kilmar Abrego Garcia's immediate deportation and ordered his release pending trial, restoring his prior immigration supervision and requiring advance notice before removal.
- On July 23, 2025, U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis barred ICE from re-detaining Abrego Garcia after his Tennessee release, requiring 72 hours' notice before removal proceedings.
- Finding no convincing evidence, Judge Waverly D. Crenshaw found the government failed to meet its burden, prompting Abrego Garcia's release.
- Abrego Garcia faces smuggling charges, pleaded not guilty with trial scheduled January 27, 2026, and federal prosecutors seek to proceed soon.
- In a separate order, Judge Paula Xinis ordered DHS to restore ICE supervision in Baltimore, directing that Abrego Garcia be returned to Maryland to live with his family.
- The judge referred release conditions to a magistrate judge, setting the framework for his status until the upcoming trial.
