Overview

• Judge Murphy found the Trump administration in violation of his April injunction requiring at least 15 days’ notice and a chance for migrants to contest deportation to third countries.
• Eight migrants from six nations, including Cuba, Myanmar, and Vietnam, were deported with less than 24 hours' notice, which the judge deemed 'plainly insufficient.'
• The migrants remain in U.S. custody, with Judge Murphy ordering interviews to assess credible fear claims and ensure compliance with due process protections.
• South Sudanese authorities stated no migrants had arrived and warned they would re-deport non-nationals to their countries of origin if they did.
• The case highlights ongoing legal battles over the administration's third-country deportation strategy, which has faced criticism for endangering migrants' safety and bypassing due process.
