Stayed by SCOTUS, now remanded back to District Court for clarification.
The Court is not happy with the use of "effectuate" by the District Court judge.
The Court is not happy with the use of "effectuate" by the District Court judge.
Due to the administrative stay issued by The Chief Justice, the deadline imposed by the District Court has now passed. To that extent, the Government's emergency application is effectively granted in part and the deadline in the challenged order is no longer effective.
The rest of the District Court's order remains in effect but requires clarification on remand. The order properly requires the Government to "facilitate" Abrego Garcia's release from custody in El Salvador and to ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador.
The intended scope of the term "effectuate" in the District Court's order is, however, unclear, and may exceed the District Court's authority.
