Supreme Court to Review Case of Salvadoran Man Deported from Maryland
The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to review the case of Kilmar Abrego-Flores, a Salvadoran man who was deported from Maryland despite a pending appeal. This decision comes after a federal judge in Maryland described the deportation as 'wholly lawless,' sparking a significant legal battle that has now reached the nation's highest court.
Abrego-Flores was deported in 2018, despite an ongoing appeal against his removal order. His case gained attention when a federal judge ordered his return to the U.S., a directive that was later affirmed by an appeals court. The controversy centers on whether the government can deport someone while their appeal is still under review, a practice that has been criticized as undermining due process.
The Supreme Court's decision to hear the case could set a precedent for how deportation cases are handled, particularly when appeals are pending. This case highlights ongoing tensions between immigration enforcement and legal rights, drawing attention to the complexities of U.S. immigration policy.
