Federal judge issues order to prohibit immigration officials from detaining Kilmar Abrego Garcia
Judge Xinis ruled ICE lacked legal authority to detain Kilmar Abrego Garcia again, citing risk of irreparable harm and prior court misinformation, blocking re-detention at ICE Baltimore Field Office.
- On Friday, U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis barred U.S. immigration officials from detaining Kilmar Abrego Garcia until the court hearing on the temporary restraining order.
- Abrego Garcia's lawyers filed an emergency motion seeking to block further detentions as U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis found he is likely to succeed on the merits and wrote that federal authorities 'affirmatively misled the tribunal.'
- ICE freed Kilmar Abrego Garcia just before 5 p.m. Thursday from Moshannon Valley Processing Center, about 115 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, and he returned to Maryland a few hours later.
- The order affects immediate liberty and Xinis wrote the court's narrowly crafted remedy cannot be quickly undone if the public is to have faith in justice, while immigration check‑ins track released asylum seekers and many have been detained since President Donald Trump's second term.
- Earlier this year, Kilmar Abrego Garcia was mistakenly deported and held in a notoriously brutal Salvadoran prison, and the Department of Homeland Security criticized the order, calling it `naked judicial activism`.
