Trump Administration Takes A Step Toward Defying Supreme Court Order
HuffPost
A showdown may be imminent at the Supreme Court now that the Justice Department has hedged again.
The Justice Department said it needs more time to tell a federal judge its plans for returning a man to the U.S. after the government deported him to a notorious prison in El Salvador.
Citing a need for a “reasonable period of time to review the Supreme Court’s order,” issued late Thursday that ordered the government to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the U.S., assistant U.S. attorney Drew Ensign griped in Friday’s motion that there was just a “mere 30 minutes into the business day” that would allow them to follow the Supreme Court’s instruction.
That was “inconsistent,” Ensign said, with the high court’s consideration for the “due regard for deference owed to the Executive Branch in the conduct of foreign affairs.”
It would be “impracticable” for the federal government to comply, Ensign wrote.
Instead, Ensign said he wants until April 15 to submit the information and a hearing to follow on April 16. A hearing before U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis in Maryland is still scheduled for 1 p.m.
