U.S. District Judge James Boasberg has ordered the Trump administration to facilitate the return of the Venezuelan migrants who were deported to El Salvador's CECOT prison last year in violation of a court order.
Boasberg on Thursday criticized the administration's refusal to offer remedies for the deportees for what he called the "flagrancy" of government's due-process violations.
"Our starting point is the Court's prior finding that the deportees were denied due process," Boasberg wrote. "Against this backdrop, and mindful of the flagrancy of the Government's violations of the deportees' due-process rights that landed Plaintiffs in this situation, the Court refuses to let them languish in the solution-less mire Defendants propose."
The judge's order requires the government to provide "boarding letters" and cover the financial cost of air travel for the Venezuelans currently in third countries who "so desire" to return to the U.S.
The Trump administration last March invoked the Alien Enemies Act -- an 18th century wartime authority used to remove noncitizens with little-to-no due process -- to deport two planeloads of alleged migrant gang members to the CECOT mega-prison in El Salvador by arguing that the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua is a "hybrid criminal state" that is invading the United States.....
The government is required to file a status report by March 13 explaining how and when it will transport the Venezuelans seeking to return to the U.S. from a third country, Boasberg said. For the men in Venezuela, the government is being ordered to "inform the Court as to the feasibility of returning Plaintiffs still in Venezuela who wish to return for their proceedings."
There has been a fun of great legal news today. I do not want anyone to miss this important ruling.
