A second Maryland judge ordered the Trump administration to return another man who was deported from the United States to El Salvador last month under alien enemy law.
US District Judge Stephanie Gallagher; Trump’s appointeeOn Wednesday, the Trump administration ruled that last month he breached a settlement agreement DHS reached last year, along with a group of young asylum seekers, when he deported a 20-year-old man called “Christian” in court last month.
He was part of an immigrant group that illegally entered the United States as an unaccompanied child, and later filed an asylum claim to remain in the United States.
DHS I agreed to a settlement refrain from deporting any of the individuals in their class until their asylum claims have been fully awarded by a US court.
Gallagher ruled that when the government deported Christian, a member of the class, violated the agreement and ordered him to return to the United States.
There was news of the incident and settlement in question. First reported by ABC News.

Gallagher stressed in her ruling that unlike other court challenges to Trump’s deportation under the alien enemy law, this focuses on “breach of contract” by the government.
Her sentence also hinted at the deportation of Abrego Garcia, a MS-13 member who lived in Maryland. Deported to El Salvador last month. US officials resisted court orders to promote return to the US
In response, Gallagher specifically appointed the Trump administration by making a sincere request to the Salvadoran government and making a sincere request to approve Christians to be detained in the United States for transport to the United States in awaiting awards on his asylum application for merit by the USCIS.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration told the court that he was arrested and convicted earlier this year for possession of cocaine, which determined Christians were eligible for removal under the alien enemy laws.
They told the court he “stop becoming a member of the rank he negotiated a settlement as an alien enemy based on the AEA.”

The agreement appeared to have no water held with Gallagher. Gallagher ordered the government not to exclude other members of the class until the asylum claim has been properly awarded.
“Therefore, under the obvious terms and fundamental tenets of the settlement agreement and contract law, the removal of class members from the United States, including but not limited to Christians, without a final decision by USCIS regarding pending asylum applications for class members, would violate the settlement agreement,” Gallagher said.
She also gave temporary restraining orders to another member of the class. This was called 18-year-old Javier, who said the group’s lawyers were in the “immediate danger” of being deported earlier this month. ABC It has been reported.

Gallagher agrees that Javier is subject to a settlement with the government and blocks its removal from the US.
