A federal appeals court ordered the return of another man deported to #ElSalvador in violation of a #CourtOrder. Jordin Melgar-Salmeron was deported on May 7, 30 minutes after the court ruled.

Accordingly, upon due consideration, the Government is hereby ORDERED to facilitate the return of Petitioner to the United States as soon as possible to "ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador," Noem v. Abrego Garcia, 145 S. Ct. 1017, 1018 (2025). As the Government recognizes in its filings, the removal was improper because it contradicted the Government's assurance to the Court that it would forbear from removing Petitioner, which this Court relied upon in resolving the stay motion. It was also improper because it violated this Court's order staying Petitioner's removal from the United States during the pendency of this matter before this Court. The Court further DIRECTS the Government to file, within one week of this Order, a supplemental declaration from an individual with personal knowledge, addressing the following: (1) the current physical location and custodial status of Petitioner; and (2) what steps the Government will take, and when, to facilitate his return to the United States. Petitioner may file any response within three days of the Government's filing.

#DOJ has confirmed that once #KilmarAbregoGarcia is released, #ICE fully intends to begin removal proceedings to send him to a "third country," not #ElSalvador — the definition of #rendition.

There's no timeline for the process & the DOJ *lawyer* [those left are willing to go along w/ #EmilBove] claims it's not "imminent."
