In the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision, Judge Xinis ordered the federal government to provide an update on Abrego Garcia’s whereabouts and the steps the administration has taken and will take to facilitate his return to the U.S. But the Friday 9:30 a.m. deadline came and went with no movement from the government.

Less than a day after the Supreme Court said the Trump administration had to “facilitate” the return of a man mistakenly deported to El Salvador, the case appeared headed for even murkier waters.

A federal judge in Maryland ordered the Department of Justice to give her daily updates on steps it is taking to secure the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from an El Salvador prison, where he has been held since being deported last month.

The U.S. Supreme Court directed President Donald Trump's administration on Thursday to facilitate the return to the United States of a Salvadoran man who the government has acknowledged was deported in error to El Salvador.

The Trump administration has conceded that it made a mistake in sending Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a notorious prison in El Salvador but argued it no longer could do anything about it.

The Supreme Court told the Trump administration to take steps to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back to the U.S. from the maximum security facility in El Salvador.

The Supreme Court on Thursday said the Trump administration must facilitate the return of a Maryland man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador, rejecting the administration’s emergency

A U.S. federal judge said on Friday it was "extremely troubling" that the Trump administration failed to comply with a court order to provide details on the status of a Maryland resident it illegally deported to El Salvador.

Lawyers for the Trump administration on Friday said they’re unable to provide information on the location and status of a Maryland man who was mistakenly deported last month to a notorious prison in El Salvador.
