Supreme Court Orders Return of Deported Salvadoran Man

The U.S. Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran man mistakenly deported to El Salvador despite having a legal work permit in the U.S. The court upheld a lower court's decision requiring the government to assist in his release from a notorious Salvadoran prison and handle his case as if he had not been wrongly deported. However, the justices requested clarity on the directive to 'effectuate' his return, suggesting it might overstep the district court's authority, and emphasized the need for the administration to respect the executive branch's role in foreign affairs. The administration admitted the deportation was an administrative error but alleged Garcia's supposed gang affiliation, which his lawyer refutes as unfounded.
