Lawyers for Kilmar Abrego Garcia claim the Trump administration has been uncooperative in bringing him back from El Salvador, despite orders from the federal judiciary. They argue that the government has not only resisted returning Garcia but has also acted to undermine judicial authority and civil rights in the process. In response to an action to dismiss the ongoing lawsuit, they emphasize the seriousness of government inaction on court directives. The administration, however, contends that it has complied with the court order, urging the lawsuit be dismissed as Garcia has been returned.
The attorneys said the lawsuit over his mistaken deportation has not concluded in a Maryland federal court. The executive branch's wanton disregard for the judicial branch has left a stain on the Constitution.
Abrego Garcia's attorneys made the allegation in a court filing shortly after the Maryland construction worker was flown to Tennessee to face federal human smuggling charges.
