A federal judge has issued a temporary block on the deportation of Abrego Garcia, an individual facing removal from the United States. The ruling was made by Judge Maria Lopez in the District Court of the state of Texas on Friday afternoon. Abrego Garcia, a 32-year-old immigrant from El Salvador, was set to be deported following a recent arrest for a minor traffic violation.
Judge Lopez’s decision to halt the deportation is based on concerns raised by Abrego Garcia’s legal team regarding potential due process violations in his immigration case. The lawyers argued that he was not given a fair opportunity to present his case and request asylum in the United States.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has stated that they are reviewing the judge’s order and considering next steps in the case. The DHS emphasized that they are committed to enforcing immigration laws while ensuring fairness and due process for all individuals involved.
Abrego Garcia’s legal representatives have expressed relief at the temporary block on his deportation, highlighting the importance of upholding the rights of immigrants in the country. They are hopeful that this decision will allow Abrego Garcia to fully present his case and seek the protection he believes he qualifies for under U.S. asylum laws.
The case is ongoing, with both sides preparing for further legal proceedings to determine the final outcome of Abrego Garcia’s immigration status in the United States.
