"Despite Abrego Garcia's new detention on Monday, a blanket court order automatically pauses any effort by the Trump administration to immediately deport him and other immigrants who are challenging their detention. Any immigrant seeking review of their detention in a Maryland federal court is covered by the order, which blocks their removal from the US until 16:00 (20:00 GMT) on the second business day after their habeas corpus petition is filed."
"Immigration officials in the US say they intend to deport Abrego Garcia to Uganda, according to a court filing Saturday, in what the man's legal team describes as an act of vindictiveness by Trump's administration. Uganda, the east African nation where the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) plans to deport him, recently agreed to a deal to accept certain deportees from the US."
Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a 30-year-old Salvadoran construction worker previously wrongfully deported, was detained by US immigration authorities in Baltimore and faces potential immediate deportation to Uganda. A blanket Maryland federal court order pauses immediate deportations for immigrants challenging their detention and blocks removal until 16:00 (20:00 GMT) on the second business day after a habeas corpus petition is filed. The Trump administration sued Maryland's 15 federal judges to challenge the standard order. ICE plans the deportation after Abrego Garcia declined an offer to go to Costa Rica in exchange for pleading guilty, a move called vindictive by his legal team.
