U.S. immigration officials do not plan to detain #Kilmar #Abrego #Garcia again -- as long as a judge’s order banning it stands, according to a Tuesday court filing.
❌Immigration and Customs Enforcement did make clear they would detain Abrego Garcia if the order was lifted, Liana J. Castano, assistant director for field operations, wrote in the filing.
Trump officials have accused Abrego Garcia of being a member of the MS-13 gang,
but he has vehemently denied the accusations and has no criminal record.
The administration brought him back to the U.S. in June under a court order -- but only after issuing an arrest warrant on human smuggling charges in Tennessee.
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis earlier this month questioned whether government officials could be trusted to follow orders barring them from taking Abrego Garcia back into immigration custody or deporting him.

via @lawdork A State Department official stated in a declaration filed on Saturday in #Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s case that, per the embassy, "#AbregoGarcia is currently being held in the #Terrorism #Confinement Center in #ElSalvador He is alive and secure in that facility." It was the first time any official confirmed in writing Abrego Garcia’s whereabouts and that he is alive.

The U.S. government’s decision to arrest a Maryland man and send him to a notorious prison in El Salvador appears to be
“wholly lawless,”
federal judge #Paula #Xinis wrote Sunday in a legal opinion explaining why she had ordered the Trump administration to bring him back to the United States.
There is little to no evidence to support a “vague, uncorroborated” allegation that #Kilmar #Abrego #Garcia was once in the MS-13 street gang,
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis wrote.
And in any case, she said, an immigration judge had expressly barred the U.S. in 2019 from deporting Abrego Garcia to El Salvador, where he faced likely persecution by local gangs.

“As defendants acknowledge, they had no legal authority to arrest him,
no justification to detain him,
and no grounds to send him to El Salvador
— let alone deliver him into one of the most dangerous prisons in the Western Hemisphere,” Xinis wrote.
She said it was “eye-popping” that the government had argued that it could not be forced to bring Abrego Garcia back because he is no longer in U.S. custody.
“They do indeed cling to the stunning proposition that they can forcibly remove any person
— migrant and U.S. citizen alike
—to prisons outside the United States,
and then baldly assert they have no way to effectuate return
because they are no longer the ‘custodian,’ and the Court thus lacks jurisdiction,” Xinis wrote.
“As a practical matter, the facts say otherwise.”
