The Trump administration on Monday asked the Supreme Court to block a U.S. District Court judge’s order requiring the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador last month.

U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis set a deadline of 11:59 ET on Monday for the Trump administration to return Abrego Garcia to U.S. soil. On Monday, a three-judge panel on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit unanimously rejected the Justice Department’s request that Xinis’ order be paused, prompting the Trump administration to appeal to the Supreme Court, The New York Times reported.
