Overview

• Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a protected U.S. resident deported in error, remains detained in El Salvador despite court orders for his return.
• The DOJ refused to answer a court-approved interrogatory, claiming it is based on the 'false premise' that the U.S. has been ordered to facilitate Garcia's release.
• In its filing, the DOJ misquoted the Supreme Court’s mandate, altering its language and erroneously referring to the 'United State.'
• Judge Paula Xinis continues to demand daily updates on the government’s efforts to comply with judicial orders, which remain unfulfilled.
• The case highlights tensions between judicial authority, executive resistance, and human rights concerns in immigration enforcement.
